"Vaccine safety advocates hailed HHS Secretary Kennedy’s plan to create an agency within the CDC focused on vaccine injuries and also long COVID and Lyme disease. In an interview with Chris Cuomo, Kennedy also revealed that when he asked an HHS agency for patient data, he was told he’d have to purchase it.

Secretary Kennedy

@SecKennedy
We are streamlining HHS to make our agency more efficient and more effective. We will eliminate an entire alphabet soup of departments, while preserving their core functions by merging them into a new organization called the Administration for a Healthy America or AHA. This overhaul will improve the health of the entire nation — to Make America Healthy Again.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is creating a new sub-agency under the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that will focus on vaccine injuries.

During an interview Thursday night with Chris Cuomo on “NewsNation,” HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said:

“We’re incorporating an agency within CDC that is going to specialize in vaccine injuries.

“These are priorities for the American people. More and more people are suffering from these injuries, and we are committed to having gold-standard science to make sure that we can figure out what the treatments are and that we can deliver the best treatments possible to the American people.”

Kennedy said the sub-agency is part of a broader focus on conditions that include long COVID and Lyme disease.

He said the pathway to creating the sub-agency wasn’t easy, elaborating on what he said Thursday, when he announced a major restructuring of HHS and the agencies it oversees, that when he requested data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), an HHS agency, he was told HHS would have to purchase it.

Kennedy told Cuomo:

“I tried to get the CMS patient information, which belongs to the American people and belongs to HHS, and the sub-agencies said we have to buy it from them, and it doesn’t make any sense. This is depersonalized data, and we need it to Make America Healthy Again.”

In February, shortly after being confirmed to run HHS, Kennedy promised that under his watch, HHS and CDC would establish a better system for tracking vaccine injuries.

On March 10, Reuters reported that unnamed sources within the CDC leaked that the agency was planning to do a study on the possible link between vaccines and autism. The story triggered an avalanche of negative mainstream news reports claiming the study isn’t needed.

On March 13, President Donald Trump pulled the nomination of Dr. David Weldon, an outspoken advocate for studying the link between autism and vaccines, after it became clear Weldon couldn’t snag the necessary number of votes.

Just this week, The Washington Post, citing anonymous sources, reported that HHS had tapped researcher David Geier — a researcher and expert on the connections between toxic exposures and autism — to lead a study of possible links between vaccines and autism. The Post, followed by other media outlets, used the opportunity to attack Geier and the need for such a study.

‘Critical safety signals may have been buried’

Brian Hooker, Ph.D., chief scientific officer for Children’s Health Defense, welcomed Kennedy’s announcement, describing it as an “excellent” development.

“It is also very sad that agencies within the HHS are ‘selling’ data to other agencies rather than having broad data-sharing both within the HHS, as well as with independent scientists,” Hooker said. “If we are ever going to get to the bottom of the causes of the chronic disease epidemic, independent researchers will need all of the relevant information that our tax dollars have paid for over so many years.”

Research scientist and author James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., called the announcement “a historic and long-overdue shift in public health accountability.”

He added:

“For decades, families of the vaccine-injured have been subjected to silence, stonewalling and denial by the very institutions tasked with ensuring safety. This new development is without question a step in the right direction.”

Biologist Christina Parks, Ph.D., who has studied vaccine injuries, said the new sub-agency “will legitimize the suffering of millions of Americans and people around the world who have suffered the agonizing effects of vaccine injury on their health or the health of a child or loved one.”

“Once the reality of vaccine injury is accepted, it will open the door to working with doctors to set a standard of care for acute vaccine injuries that has the potential to mitigate the damage caused by these events and speed recovery,” Parks said.

Nebraska chiropractor Ben Tapper, whose public questioning of the COVID-19 vaccines led the Center for Countering Digital Hate to add him — as well as figures like Kennedy — to its “Disinformation Dozen” list of the 12 “leading online anti-vaxxers” in 2021, also welcomed the announcement.

“This news feels like a long-overdue crack in the dam,” Tapper said. “For decades, we’ve been shouting on the rooftops — parents, researchers and victims alike — about the real harm these shots can cause, only to be dismissed as conspiracy nuts or told the science is ‘settled.’”

Tapper said that data on vaccine injuries has long been available — but ignored.

“If you know where to look, the data’s been there: VAERS reports, court payouts from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and countless studies buried or ignored by the mainstream. Now, they can’t pretend it’s not happening anymore.”

VAERS — the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System — is a government-run database of vaccine injury reports. Since the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccines, reports of vaccine-related injuries and deaths submitted to VAERS have significantly increased, while some have accused the government of undercounting reports.

“Vaccine injuries are real,” said Dr. Joel Wallskog, co-chair of React19, an advocacy group for vaccine injury victims. “COVID-19 vaccine injuries are real. There have been more adverse events in VAERS with the COVID-19 vaccines than all other vaccines combined.”

Wallskog added:

“The time has come for our country to stop the polarizing rhetoric about vaccine injuries. Creating a sub-agency to evaluate these injuries in a scientific manner — and not political — has the potential to help thousands, perhaps millions of people.”

Health freedom advocate Sayer Ji, co-founder of Stand for Health Freedom, called Kennedy’s announcement “an admission that the system has failed — and gravely.”

“That HHS departments were selling patient data and operating in silos reveals a cartel, not a public health institution. This is not reform — it’s rupture. And it opens the door to a new era of truth, accountability, and bodily sovereignty,” Ji said.

Lyons-Weiler suggested that critical data about vaccine injuries may have been overlooked as a result of the lack of communication within HHS.

“Critical safety signals may have been buried — not necessarily through conspiracy, but through a disjointed, profit-driven and overly bureaucratic system that prioritized internal control and proprietary access over transparency, accountability, and science,” Lyons-Weiler said.

Kennedy inherited an ‘incomprehensible’ organizational structure at HHS

During Thursday’s interview with Cuomo, Kennedy also addressed criticism over staff reductions at HHS. Kennedy said HHS “is the biggest agency in government, twice the size of the Pentagon” and that the cuts will not affect the agency’s focus on public health.

“We’re not going to cut services. We’re not going to cut Medicaid, we’re not going to cut Medicare. We’re going to continue. We’re going to provide services, but more efficiently,” Kennedy said.

When he took over as HHS secretary, Kennedy said he inherited a department with an “incomprehensible” organizational structure and with “no chain of command, where people [were] operating in all these different silos and fiefdoms.”

“What we’re trying to do now is to streamline the agency, to eliminate the redundancies and to focus the mission so that everybody who is at HHS is going to wake up every morning and say, ‘What am I going to do today to Make America Healthy Again?”

Kennedy also discussed the recently launched “Operation Stork Speed,” which will “improve our capacity to have good, nutritious baby formula for the American public that doesn’t have heavy metals or other poisons in it,” and HHS efforts to eliminate toxic dyes from the food supply.

“We’ve met with the major food processors and told them we want chemical dyes out of all of our foods,” Kennedy said.

Kennedy added that HHS is reforming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to stop subsidizing the purchase of unhealthy products.

“We’re reforming every part of the agency to make sure that our food supply is good and that we have the healthiest kids in the world, which we had when I was a kid,” Kennedy said."

Press Conference: RFK Jr. and West Virginia Gov. Morrisey on food dyes and proposed changes to SNAP

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH1kGrVMIcI

Kennedy humor at 18:35 in video:
"I said to Dr. Morrisey or Governor Morrisey; the first time I saw him, I said, “You look like you ate Governor Morrisey.” And there was a lot of talk about getting healthy again. And I’m very happy, and he’s invited me to be his personal trainer. And I am going to put him— I’m going to put him on a really rigorous regimen, and we’re going to put him on a carnivore diet.

We’re going to make him do— raise your hand if you want Governor Morrisey to do a public weigh-in once a month. And then when he’s lost 30 pounds, I’m going to come back to the state and do a celebration and a public weigh-in with him."

ATL - No Chemicals, No Vaccines, No Subsidies, Inside Joel Salatin’s Farming Revolution (https://podbay.fm/p/american-thought-leaders/e/1744167600)
1 hour 10 minutes - Posted Apr 9, 2025

Show notes
Joel Salatin is one of America’s most revered regenerative farmers. At Polyface Farms, he avoids synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and vaccines. He doesn’t take any government subsidies. And he’s been a major source of inspiration for many seeking to build farms of their own with symbiotic, sustainable ecosystems—ones that enrich rather than deplete the soil.

For decades, he’s been fighting government overregulation of small food producers.

Salatin is featured in multiple documentaries and is the author of 17 books, including “Everything I Want To Do Is Illegal: War Stories from the Local Food Front” and “Folks, This Ain’t Normal: A Farmer’s Advice for Happier Hens, Healthier People, and a Better World.”

WATCH: RFK Jr. Says He’s Working with DOGE to Tackle Medicaid Fraud: “We’re in a Very Good Position Now to Identify that and to Eliminate It”

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said on Thursday that he is working with Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut the waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid.

“We think we’re going to be able to identify it and eliminate it while, incidentally, protecting the Medicaid—while protecting the Medicaid program and improving services to our poorest Americans,” RFK Jr. told Fox’s Martha MacCallum on Thursday following a high-stakes Cabinet meeting.

U.S. Lab Behind COVID? Jeffrey Sachs Drops STUNNING Claim!
4BaQWyREXjU

Jeffrey Sachs just dropped a bombshell: he’s “99% sure” COVID came not from China — but from a lab in North Carolina.

For years, anyone questioning the Wuhan narrative was labeled a conspiracy theorist. Now one of the world’s top economists is pointing the finger at the University of North Carolina, accusing it of conducting dangerous gain-of-function research that may have created the virus in the first place — with U.S. government funding.

Meanwhile, Trump just signed an executive order banning gain-of-function research in… China. But if COVID leaked from a U.S. lab, does that even matter?

Wellness Company CEO Peter Gillooly Discusses Profanity-laced Phone Call from Calley Means, Truemed CEO and Brother to Surgeon General Casey Means

VIDEO INTERVIEW:
https://rumble.com/v6tc9c9-resign-now-healthcare-ceo-exposes-calley-means-rfk-jr.-advisor-elijah-schaf.html

A dramatic and bitter feud is unraveling within the ranks of the “Make America Healthy Again” movement, a populist health crusade reshaping federal healthcare policy under President Donald Trump and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

At the center of this political and medical storm are Calley Means — a key RFK Jr. advisor and entrepreneur — and Peter Gillooly, CEO of The Wellness Company, a supplement brand with deep ties to conservative influencers and medical professionals who oppose COVID shots.

In a formal complaint filed Saturday with multiple federal oversight bodies — including the Office of the Special Counsel and the Department of Health and Human Services Inspector General — Gillooly accuses Means of leveraging his government role to threaten him and unlawfully coerce private business dealings.

The conflict centers on market share, ideological purity, and access to influential conservative health circles.

Means, a special government employee who advises RFK Jr. at HHS, is also the co-founder of Truemed, a company that enables customers to use pre-tax health spending accounts for wellness products — a business model that has gained traction among health-conscious conservatives.

In a recorded phone call obtained by RiftTV, Means confronted Gillooly, accusing The Wellness Company of leaking damaging and false information about TrueMed to rightwing activist Laura Loomer.

“Your company has deep research on Truemed and is actively sharing that with people to f**k with us,” Means alleged.

He then issued a warning: “If one more thing happens, I’m going to go to Jay Bhattacharya and Bobby [RFK Jr.] and tell him that you and your cadre of Peter McCullough and Kelly Victory, are spreading lies and trying to f*** with him and hurt his administration.”

Means escalated further, threatening legal action. “I am going to sue the s*** out of you and escalate this if it continues.”

Peter Gillooly, CEO of The Wellness Company, “categorically” denied sharing any information, responding, “I’m a little confused about why you’re calling.”

The Shot Heard Around the Nation: MAHA Movement Forces Policy Shift -- Sayer Ji

The People Pressured. The System Moved. MAHA Turns Protest into Policy. There are times when the veil lifts, and for a brief moment, we witness government not as an abstract machinery, but as a stage where truth meets resistance—and sometimes, prevails. This week in Washington, D.C., was such a time.

Bobby’s Testimony: Integrity Under Fire
Inside the hearing room of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Health and Human Services, history didn’t whisper—it roared.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. didn’t just testify; he testified with fire in his bones. Through two intense hearings, he held the line on behalf of the American people—often under fierce interrogation.

One of the most searing revelations came when Kennedy exposed the corruption within the National Institutes of Health (NIH), blaming it for the stagnation in Alzheimer’s research:

“For 20 years, because of utter corruption and fraud, we were directing Alzheimer’s research to one hypothesis, and any other approach was essentially blacklisted.”

His words struck like lightning. They didn’t just challenge a narrative—they shattered it.

Rep. Lois Frankel attempted to reduce Bobby’s vision for HHS reform to “Elon Musk plugging random numbers into a computer.” His reply was firm and fearless:

“Everything that you said was essentially dishonest.”

He spoke not from ego, but from moral clarity backed by data, integrity, and a lifetime of advocacy. Later, he addressed Rep. Rosa DeLauro with a stark truth:

“Look at our children—they're the sickest children in the world!”

In that moment, you could feel a tectonic shift—not just in the hearing room, but across the national conscience. It was a line drawn. And millions are standing behind it.

After the Fire: A Convergence of Purpose
Following the hearings, I joined RFK Jr., his family, and a constellation of changemakers: Dr. Tia Kansara, Tony Lyons, Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul, Jan Jekielek, Jeffrey Tucker, Dr. Eric Berg, Dr. Joel Bohemier, Charles Eisenstein, Leigh Merinoff, Leslie Manookian, and Jeffrey Rose.

Together, we sat, connected, and bore witness to a moment larger than ourselves. We weren’t just reacting to history. We were participating in its rewriting.

This is not a movement of isolated voices. This is a convergence.

The MAHA Movement—Make Americans Healthy Again—is not theoretical. It is embodied, it is organized, and it is producing results.

RFK Jr.'s Next Target: A Common Weedkiller

After targeting dyes and other chemicals allowed for use in food, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is zeroing in on the active ingredient in Roundup in his bid to root out what he calls environmental toxins that contribute to chronic disease.

Why it matters: The herbicide glyphosate is expected to feature prominently in a report due out this week from President Trump's Make America Healthy Again Commission, which was charged with identifying top contributors to America's chronic health problems.

But some warn that clamping down on pesticides could cause major disruption of the food supply, with repercussions for agriculture interests and consumers.

In a speech last week, White House senior health adviser Calley Means previewed the report's findings, pointing to chemical pesticides as contributors to Americans' poor health.

"Obviously it's because of environmental toxins. We produce and ingest 25% of the world's pesticides," Means said at an event in D.C. launching the MAHA institute. "The leading herbicides and pesticides that we use in the United States -- many of them are phased out or banned in every other country in the world."

The big picture: While some environmentalists and wellness influencers have long decried the to use of herbicides and pesticides, glyphosate is the most widely used weedkiller worldwide and the key ingredient in Bayer's Roundup.

Laser Weeding Robot Kills 100,000 Weeds Per Hour

A Company by the name of Carbon Robotics made an Autonomous Laser Weeding Robot, that kills 100,000 weeds per hour, using nothing but lasers.

The Robot, uses GPS and Lidar sensors, to autonomously drive within the bounds of a field, navigate furrows, and automatically turn around to start on the next row.

Because the Robot uses thermal energy to eradicate weeds, rather than a physical intervention like tilling, the machine doesn't disturb the soil below. That means reduced farm costs, no more herbicides, and most importantly, happier, healthier crops.

While the Robot moves around its plot at about 5 miles per hour, its 12 high-resolution cameras continuously scan the ground below. Meanwhile, an onboard supercomputer uses machine learning to identify unwanted plants in mere milliseconds.

Once the robot pinpoints undesirable weeds, it fires its eight carbon dioxide lasers at them.

The Robots laser array can kill a combined 100,000 weeds per hour, or about 28 weeds per second. And a single robot can weed 15 to 20 acres in a day.

"As of today, the CDC will no longer recommend COVID-19 vaccines for children and healthy pregnant women, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced this morning.
In a video posted on X, Kennedy was flanked by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, director of the National Institutes of Health, and Dr. Marty Makary, U.S. Food and Drug Administration commissioner, as he made the announcement.

“I couldn’t be more pleased to announce that as of today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule,” he said.

Kennedy said the Biden administration had recommended the boosters, even though it had no clinical data to support the recommendation.

“That ends today. It’s common sense and it’s good science,” Bhattacharya added.

Mary Holland, CEO of Children’s Health Defense (CHD) — which early on urged the CDC not to recommend the vaccines for children, and challenged the agency after it did, celebrated the news.

“Hallelujah!” Holland said. She added:

“These dangerous, poorly tested shots have caused injuries and death to far too many children. And many of the vaccines’ long-term side effects remain unknown. This is a major step in the right direction.

“CHD urged the CDC not to add these dangerous vaccines to the childhood schedule. When we were ignored, we fought relentlessly to get them removed. This is a victory for all children and pregnant women.”

In 2022, CHD sued the FDA for granting emergency use authorization of the COVID-19 shots for children and babies. The lawsuit alleged the FDA misused emergency power to push dangerous biologics on minors. The organization appealed the case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which declined to hear it.

Even at the height of the pandemic, experts agreed that children were at extremely low risk from COVID-19. Soon after the shots were authorized, vaccine injury reports and peer-reviewed studies showed the vaccines were linked to myocarditis and pericarditis, particularly for young people, in addition to many other risks.

Yet, the public health agencies authorized the shot for people ages 16 and up from the start, and expanded that authorization to 12-year-olds by May of 2021. The FDA authorized the drug for children ages 5 and up in October 2021, and for babies 6 months and older in June 2022.

The COVID-19 vaccine never received FDA approval for children under age 12 — it remains under emergency use authorization.

Yet, the CDC added COVID-19 vaccination in February 2023 to its routine immunization schedule for children and adults, the agency’s vaccine advisers unanimously recommended it. The CDC has continued to recommend annual boosters for children.

The schedule is the basis for vaccine recommendations made by most physicians.

The CDC’s immunization schedule also provides formal guidance for state and local public health officials who set the rules for which vaccines are required to attend school. Children typically must receive all of the vaccines on the schedule to be considered “up to date” on their vaccinations.

Vaccines included on the childhood schedule are also paid for by the Vaccines for Children Program, which distributes cost-free vaccines to children whose families cannot afford to pay for them. More than 50% of children have their vaccine costs covered by the program, according to the CDC.

The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported earlier this month, citing anonymous inside sources, that HHS was working on an imminent plan to stop recommending the shots. However, the agency never confirmed the WSJ report, which said an announcement was expected “in the coming days.”

Last week the FDA announced plans to limit approvals for updated COVID-19 vaccines to people over age 65 and people with one or more health conditions that put them at high risk for the virus.

According to the announcement, new COVID-19 shots for healthy children and adults must go through placebo-controlled clinical trials before they can be approved.

The announcement generated criticism from those who noted that because the approval plan would make the shots available to anyone in a high-risk group, many children and all pregnant women would still be eligible for the shots.

Today’s announcement appears to address the concern about pregnant women.

No one from the CDC was present at the announcement. The acting director, Susan Monarez, Ph.D., stepped down in March when she was nominated permanently to the position. Kennedy has reported that attorney Matthew Buzzelli is currently acting director."

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: How to Fix America’s Health Crisis as HHS Secretary

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sODZSAuxTTw

During the interview, Kennedy shared what some might call a “conspiracy theory”—but it offers a compelling explanation for why TV news suddenly stopped criticizing the pharmaceutical industry.

Twenty years ago, it wasn’t uncommon to see news segments questioning the safety or effectiveness of vaccines. But then it all went quiet. According to Kennedy, that silence was bought with pharmaceutical ad dollars.

Big Pharma doesn’t just advertise on TV news, he said. They want to “control the content.”

Kennedy revealed that Fox News founder Roger Ailes once told him 75% of his evening news ad revenue came from pharmaceutical companies.

So, when you see Jake Tapper on CNN? His paycheck may say CNN…

But the money comes from Pfizer and the other pharmaceutical giants flooding the airwaves with ads.

“And they know that,” Kennedy said.

“They know they’ve got to toe the line. They’ve got to frighten us all about infectious disease.”

“They’re not giving us the real news. They’re not asking the questions they ought to be asking. There’s no skepticism,” he added.

“Twenty years ago, they used to say, ‘Yeah, there’s problems with vaccines or other drugs.’ They will never do that today.”

Then, RFK Jr. put every medical journal bought off by Big Pharma on notice—including The Lancet, New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, and all “those other journals because they’re all corrupt.”

He made it clear: their reign as the premier voices in medical science is coming to an end.

Kennedy pointed to the warning from Dr. Marcia Angell, former editor-in-chief of the New England Journal of Medicine, who declared it is “no longer a science journal.”

Instead, she called it a “vessel for pharmaceutical propaganda.”

Now, Kennedy is shaking up the status quo, cutting ties with these captured publications and building something better.

“We’re going to stop NIH scientists from publishing there,” he said. “And we’re going to create our own journals in health in each of the institutions.”

He added that these new, government-backed journals will become the “preeminent journals” in the world because they’ll be grounded in real science, not corporate spin.

“If you get NIH funding,” Kennedy said, “it is anointing you as a good, legitimate scientist.”

The second announcement dropped when Kennedy said, “We’re going to end the war at FDA against alternative medicine.”

That includes stem cells, chelating drugs, vitamins, peptides—“anything that is not going to make Big Pharma rich.”

Kennedy revealed he had to travel all the way to Antigua, in the Caribbean, just to receive stem cell treatment for his throat.

“They helped me enormously,” he said. “But I shouldn’t have to leave the country to get them.”

Mars, the manufacturer of Skittles, has confirmed that it removed titanium dioxide from its U.S. Skittles portfolio at the end of 2024. The decision follows years of consumer advocacy, a class-action lawsuit (since dismissed), and a European Union ban on the substance in 2022. Although titanium dioxide remains legal in the U.S., scrutiny of the ingredient has intensified, especially after President Trump appointed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as head of the Department of Health and Human Services, which has reinvigorated national debates around food safety.

Media, Health Officials Lash Out at RFK Jr. Over New COVID Vaccine Recommendations — CDC Was Likely to Make the Change Anyway

update: But much more disappointing is the article posted here:https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?123862-The-MAHA-Diaries&p=1671073&viewfull=1#post1671073

(Podcast at the link. Hyperlinks in the article not embedded here.)
"After HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the CDC will stop recommending COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women, the media and medical associations attacked the decision as out of line with current thinking. However, the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee was poised to make a similar recommendation next month.

Tuesday’s announcement that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will no longer recommend COVID-19 vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women ignited a firestorm of criticism from many mainstream public health officials, organizations and doctors.

The new recommendations don’t preclude pregnant women and children from getting the vaccines — the CDC just isn’t recommending them any longer for those groups.

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) said in a statement that the organization is “concerned about and extremely disappointed” by the new recommendations, announced yesterday by U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

“As ob-gyns who treat patients every day, we have seen firsthand how dangerous COVID-19 infection can be during pregnancy and for newborns who depend on maternal antibodies from the vaccine for protection,” said Dr. Steven J. Fleischman, ACOG president.

“It is very clear that COVID-19 infection during pregnancy can be catastrophic and lead to major disability, and it can cause devastating consequences for families. The COVID-19 vaccine is safe during pregnancy, and vaccination can protect our patients and their infants after birth,” he added.

ACOG didn’t cite any evidence for its claims.

The American Academy of Pediatrics said the removal of the vaccines from the schedule “ignores independent medical experts and leaves children at risk.”

The organization, which typically aligns its recommendations with those of the CDC, told MedPage Today that it “may have to rethink how we harmonize with the federal government.”

The New York Times conceded there isn’t scientific evidence to support vaccination among healthy children. However, the Times still called the move “Kennedy’s latest salvo in dismantling decades of vaccine safety policies, especially those intended for children.”

Others criticized the process behind the decision-making. MedPage Today cited a retired pediatrician, who said it was unusual for the HHS secretary to bypass typical agency processes.

STAT News said it was “unprecedented” for the secretary to announce such a change, and cited a law professor who said it might open the decision up to being challenged.

Another expert quoted by MedPage Today, Dr. Tina Tan, said the decision would make it harder to access vaccines because insurers may decide not to maintain coverage for a vaccine not listed on the schedule.

As of today, no changes to the schedule appear on the CDC website.

Advisory committee poised to make similar recommendation anyway

For vaccines to get onto the childhood schedule, typically the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) recommends them, after which the CDC director approves them.

At least one other vaccine has been taken off the schedule. When Rotashield, Wyeth’s (now Pfizer) rotavirus vaccine, caused intussusception in infants one to two weeks following vaccination, the vaccine was suspended pending ACIP review. ACIP then recommended removing it, and the CDC took it off the schedule in 1999.

However, experts who spoke with The Defender said ACIP is only an advisory committee, and the CDC director — and HHS more generally — aren’t bound by ACIP’s recommendations. They can and sometimes do make independent decisions.

For example, in September 2021, former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky overruled ACIP when she decided to recommend COVID-19 boosters for everyone age 16 and older. ACIP recommended against the boosters, citing the lack of safety and efficacy data on the vaccine for 16- and 17-year-olds.

Several news outlets highlighted the absence of a CDC representative when Kennedy announced the news Tuesday, flanked by the directors of the National Institutes of Health and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The acting director of the CDC, Susan Monarez, Ph.D., stepped down in March when she was nominated for the permanent director’s position. Kennedy has reported that attorney Matthew Buzzelli is currently acting director, while Monarez awaits U.S. Senate confirmation hearings.

Despite the consternation reported that the process for removing the vaccine is atypical, and not based on public debate, ACIP discussed the issue extensively in its April meeting, and was reportedly poised to make a similar recommendation.

STAT News reported that the ACIP subgroup focused on vaccine recommendations is intending to recommend at their June meeting that the universal vaccination for all people ages 6 months and up be replaced with one that “urges people at high risk of severe illness if they contract Covid to continue to be vaccinated.”

The subgroup made a detailed presentation to ACIP in April, and explored three potential recommendations: keeping the universal recommendation, reducing it to only people at high risk or reducing it to high risk for everyone under age 64.

In April, a poll of ACIP members showed that 76% supported switching to a non-universal recommendation.

The full committee is set to vote on that recommendation next month. It will be up to the CDC whether to accept the recommendation or make a different one.

Last week, the FDA announced plans to limit approvals for updated COVID-19 vaccines to people over age 65 and people with one or more health conditions that put them at high risk for the virus.

The agency also said it will require new clinical trial data to approve new COVID-19 shots for healthy children.

Under the new rules, between 100-200 million Americans would still be eligible for the shots, because so many people have conditions that are considered comorbidities, the FDA said.

Will children and pregnant women lose access to COVID vaccines?

The CDC’s Vaccines for Children Program is a federal program that provides free vaccines to uninsured or underinsured children and children who are eligible for or enrolled in Medicaid.

Medicaid compensates pediatricians for the costs associated with administering the vaccines. It also requires physicians who participate in the program to administer all vaccines on the childhood vaccination schedule to every child.

Attorney Rick Jaffe represents Dr. Samara Cardenas, a California pediatrician who treats children on Medicaid, in a lawsuit funded by Children’s Health Defense. Cardenas sued the CDC because she was kicked out of the Vaccines for Children Program when she refused to give COVID-19 vaccines to healthy kids.

Jaffe told The Defender that if the COVID-19 vaccine is no longer on the CDC schedule, the Vaccines for Children Program would no longer recommend it, and doctors would no longer be compelled to purchase and administer it as part of the program.

However, “there’s a big qualifier,” he said, which is that the recommendation is changing only for healthy children. “According to RFK Jr. and the health authorities, there are a lot of sick kids out there.”

Jaffe said that given the large number of children excluded from the new recommendation, he believes it’s likely the CDC-funded program will still cover the costs of the vaccine for those who want it.

He also said that most insurance carriers will likely still pay for the shot for those who want it. “In general, insurance carriers are pro-vaccine,” he said.

Jaffe said he thought the qualification was a good thing because it meant no one would be compelled to get the shot.

Currently, doctors in the Vaccines for Children Program are being forced to give the shots to little kids “even though it’s only emergency use authorized and never proven to have any clinical benefit.”

That will now change, he said. However, any parent who wants their kid to get the shot will likely be able to do so, because risk factors like allergies are so prevalent.

The Vaccines for Children Program did not respond to The Defender’s inquiry about its plans to cover the vaccine. The top three U.S. health insurance providers — United Healthcare, Kaiser Permanente and Elevance Health (formerly Aetna) — did not respond either.

Will new recommendations have ‘devastating consequences’ for pregnant women?

The Guardian reported that doctors fear “devastating consequences” for pregnant women, citing ACOG’s statements.

The article also quoted a doctor from March of Dimes who said she once cared for an unvaccinated pregnant woman who died from COVID-19, and the Society for Maternal Fetal Medicine, which also said it still recommends the vaccine as safe and effective for pregnant women, but without citing evidence to support the claim.

However, risks to pregnant women have been known — and ignored or hidden by public health agencies and professional organizations — since even before the CDC began recommending pregnant women take the vaccines.

Pfizer clinical trial data showed the shots were linked to miscarriages and preterm births. Pfizer’s pregnancy and lactation report also detailed extensive side effects for nursing babies, including fever, vomiting and edema, or swollen tissue, among many other issues.

Pfizer sent its report to the FDA on April 20, 2021. Three days later, Walensky gave a White House press briefing, during which she told women there was no bad time to get vaccinated — before, during or after pregnancy.

Earlier this month, Dr. Sara Brenner, a preventive medicine physician who has worked at the FDA since 2019, including as itss principal deputy commissioner — and briefly its acting commissioner — admitted she refused the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine while pregnant, even as her agency promoted it as “safe and effective” for all pregnant women.

Brenner explained on May 15 at the “MAHA Institute Round Table” that her decision was driven by a lack of safety data, particularly around the biodistribution of the vaccine’s lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) — the tiny fat particles used to deliver the mRNA into cells.

She warned that unintended toxic effects — especially in vulnerable populations like pregnant women — could not be ignored.

A recent analysis of reports submitted to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) found safety signals for 37 adverse events when COVID-19 vaccines were administered during pregnancy.

Meanwhile, few pregnant women are opting to take the shot. In the 2022-2023 season, only 27.3% of women chose to take the shot. In the 2024-2025 season, only about 14% opted in. "

In a video posted on X, Kennedy was flanked by Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, director of the National Institutes of Health, and Dr. Marty Makary, U.S. Food and Drug Administration commissioner, as he made the announcement.

“I couldn’t be more pleased to announce that as of today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule,” he said.

Kennedy said the Biden administration had recommended the boosters, even though it had no clinical data to support the recommendation.

“That ends today. It’s common sense and it’s good science,” Bhattacharya added.

Mary Holland, CEO of Children’s Health Defense (CHD) — which early on urged the CDC not to recommend the vaccines for children, and challenged the agency after it did, celebrated the news.

“Hallelujah!” Holland said. She added:

“These dangerous, poorly tested shots have caused injuries and death to far too many children. And many of the vaccines’ long-term side effects remain unknown. This is a major step in the right direction.

“CHD urged the CDC not to add these dangerous vaccines to the childhood schedule. When we were ignored, we fought relentlessly to get them removed. This is a victory for all children and pregnant women.”

In 2022, CHD sued the FDA for granting emergency use authorization of the COVID-19 shots for children and babies. The lawsuit alleged the FDA misused emergency power to push dangerous biologics on minors. The organization appealed the case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which declined to hear it.

Even at the height of the pandemic, experts agreed that children were at extremely low risk from COVID-19. Soon after the shots were authorized, vaccine injury reports and peer-reviewed studies showed the vaccines were linked to myocarditis and pericarditis, particularly for young people, in addition to many other risks.

Yet, the public health agencies authorized the shot for people ages 16 and up from the start, and expanded that authorization to 12-year-olds by May of 2021. The FDA authorized the drug for children ages 5 and up in October 2021, and for babies 6 months and older in June 2022.

The COVID-19 vaccine never received FDA approval for children under age 12 — it remains under emergency use authorization.

The Great ‘MAHA’ Divide

Administration (FDA) published an article in the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) titled “An Evidence-Based Approach to Covid-19 Vaccination”.

The article proposed new FDA guidance for the pharmaceutical industry characterized as a dramatic shift in the FDA’s approach to regulating COVID‑19 vaccines.

It indicated a move away from the FDA’s rubber-stamping of these vaccines, we were told, and toward “evidence-based” policymaking.

The authors were Dr. Vinay Prasad, the Director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), which is responsible for the vaccine approval process; and Dr. Martin (“Marty”) Makary, the FDA Commissioner.

Prior to joining the FDA, both men were vocal critics of the COVID‑19 vaccine recommendations made by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

They were not otherwise known, however, for seriously questioning the CDC’s routine childhood vaccine schedule like everyone in the health freedom movement.

The FDA is a subagency of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which is headed now by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a longtime critic of so-called “public health” policies who joined with “warrior moms” to found the organization Children’s Health Defense (CHD) to address the threat to children’s health from the incessant onslaught of environmental toxins—including from the CDC’s vaccine schedule.

Mr. Kennedy is now in the position of serving under the proud executor of “Operation Warp Speed”, the taxpayer-funded project to rapidly develop and distribute COVID‑19 vaccines—the stated endgame of the lockdown madness.

Kennedy had been an independent candidate for president until he quit his campaign to join forces with Donald Trump—despite Kennedy having promised his campaign supporters that “UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES” would he do that.

At that point, Kennedy rebranded his political campaign “MAHA”—Make America Healthy Again. It was a play on Trump’s “Make America Great Again” brand, “MAGA”.

“A Vote for Trump Is a Vote for Kennedy”, a banner at the top of the campaign’s website proclaimed.
The campaign website “TeamKennedy.com” was redirected to “MAHAnow.org”, where members of the health freedom movement were encouraged to help make America healthy again by joining the “MAHA Movement”—which meant by voting for Trump.

“A Vote for Trump Is a Vote for Kennedy”, a banner at the top of the campaign’s website proclaimed.

And members of the health freedom movement lined up in droves to do so. Senior aides in the White House told Politico they believed this alliance was a decisive factor in the November 2024 presidential election.

Since then, the acronym “MAHA” has been used as a euphemism for “the health freedom movement” despite the obvious logical distinction between a grassroots movement and a political campaign.

That distinction has been increasingly forcing itself into the public discourse.

In particular, the controversy over Trump’s nomination of tech entrepreneur Casey Means for the position of Surgeon General has revealed a deep and growing divide within the health freedom movement.

In one group are those who supported Trump from the start or who were so adamantly loyal to Kennedy that they voted for Trump even if only to get Kennedy into a government position, who believe that any perceived lack of significant change is just because Kennedy has to “play the game” of politics, and who insist that we should “trust” his behind-the-scenes plan to get the job done.

In the other group are those who refuse to compromise when it comes to our children’s health, who see recent developments as mere public relations stunts instead of meaningful change, and who do not withhold criticisms of the Trump administration and of Kennedy for what they perceive as his new role of giving his own stamp of approval to the continuation of criminal policies.

At the top of the list of those policies, as agreed by everyone in the grassroots movement, is the FDA’s rubber-stamping of and the CDC’s recommendations for COVID‑19 vaccines—including for infants and pregnant women.

On May 21, the day after the FDA officials’ article was published in the New England Journal of Medicine, Secretary Kennedy hailed it as “a long-overdue return to scientific integrity and medical freedom”— proof that “[the FDA] is finally breaking away from the one-size-fits-all vaccine policy that authorized the COVID shots for every American over 6 months old.”

Many in the MAHA movement have interpreted the article as an announcement of the intent by FDA officials to require COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers to conduct randomized, placebo-controlled trials to receive continued authorizations or approvals for their products for use in healthy and non-elderly people.

It’s been hailed as a great victory of evidence-based policymaking over the previously prevailing rubber stamping of pharmaceutical products—a clear proof that things are heading in the right direction now that Mr. Kennedy is HHS Secretary under President Trump.

But is it really a victory for health freedom? Or is it just a public relations ploy from the administration that executed “Operation Warp Speed” that aims to disarm longtime critics of public vaccine policies?

Between these two opposing views that have emerged within the health freedom movement, who is right?

As a member of the movement myself since well before Covid and author of the book The War on Informed Consent, which features a Foreword by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., I respectfully submit that this question is sufficiently answered by a critical examination of FDA guidance proposed by Prasad and Makary in the New England Journal of Medicine.

So, let’s get to it.

Misdiagnosing the “Public Trust” Problem
To answer the question, we must first analyze the operative framework adopted by Prasad and Makary.

Echoing the view of Warp Speed’s executor, they assert that “the rapid development” of COVID‑19 vaccines in 2020 was “a major scientific, medical, and regulatory accomplishment”.

Then they lament that Americans “remain unconvinced” about the benefits of repeated booster doses.

Uptake of the vaccines “has been poor”, they write. Even health care workers “remain hesitant, with less than one third participating in the 2023–2024 fall booster program.”

The central problem, in their view, is that “public trust in vaccination in general has declined, resulting in a reluctance to vaccinate that is affecting even vital immunization programs such as that for measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccination”.

“public trust in vaccination in general has declined, resulting in a reluctance to vaccinate that is affecting even vital immunization programs”
Prasad and Makary thus make clear that their aim is to restore “public trust” in the CDC’s vaccine recommendations.

It is from within that narrow framework that they seek to provide “guidance” to “foster evidence generation.”

The problem, though, is not that the authoritarian COVID‑19 lockdown madness and coerced mass vaccination endgame caused masses of people now distrust the “public health” establishment.

That is rather a necessary part of the solution because the real problem is that the government’s “public health” agencies have perpetually proven themselves to be completely unworthy of our trust.

By misdiagnosing the problem, Prasad and Makary arrive at the predetermined conclusion that the “evidence” generated under their proposed “guidance” will support the goal of restoring “trust” in the continuation of the government’s barbaric vaccine policies.

The Lie about ‘Herd Immunity’
To help illustrate why the goal should not be to convince Americans that they should trust the CDC et al., let’s consider just a few of the countless lies government officials told for the purpose of supporting their policy goal of achieving high vaccine uptake.

Tossed down Orwell’s memory hole by Prasad and Makary is the fact that the entire “public health” establishment brazenly lied that the shots would end the pandemic by creating “herd immunity”.

Supposed health “authorities”—from the CDC on down to healthcare providers—claimed that it was scientifically proven that two doses of an mRNA COVID‑19 vaccine would confer durable sterilizing immunity, stopping infection and transmission of SARS‑CoV‑2.

To support that assertion, they said “the science” said so—a euphemism meaning whatever anti-science preposterousness came out of the CDC or the mouths of people like Dr. Anthony “I represent science” Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the National Institutes of Health (NIH), another subagency of HHS.

According to Fauci, any criticism of his person ipso facto constituted “attacks on science”.

The truth, of course, was that the clinical trials were not designed to test the hypothesis that the vaccines would stop infection and transmission of the virus. Nor were the vaccines expected to confer this “sterilizing immunity” because—as Fauci later admitted—they weren’t designed to.

As CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky and White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx both later admitted, their claims of wondrous vaccine effectiveness were based not on science but “hope”.

When deceiving people into getting the vaccines didn’t work, the method was coercion.

When people including myself tried to warn the public about how the government and mainstream media were lying, the truth was systematically censored from social media by Big Tech companies colluding with the criminal organization in Washington to shred the First Amendment to the US Constitution.

The sin that we truthtellers were guilty of was not the spreading of “vaccine misinformation” but heresy against the vaccine religion.

The Lie about mRNA Persistence
Another lie told by the “public health” establishment was that the mRNA from the vaccines is eliminated from the body “within a few days”.

The faux “fact check” industry insisted this was true, of course, because the CDC said so.

But it wasn’t true.

It was another assumption,or belief,or hope—expressed as fact but subsequently falsified by scientific research.

The purpose of the mRNA in the vaccines is to instruct human cells to produce the spike protein of “severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2”, or SARS‑CoV‑2.

That’s the official name of the probable creation of dangerous “gain of function” research promoted and funded by Fauci’s NIAID and other government agencies."

Infection with this virus is a necessary but insufficient factor in the pathogenesis of the clinical disease called “coronavirus disease 2019”—abbreviated “COVID‑19” and colloquially referred to as just “Covid”.

To ensure delivery into human cells, the mRNA is encapsulated in a lipid nanoparticle, with the idea being to cause the immune system to generate neutralizing antibodies against the SARS‑CoV‑2 spike protein.

It is therefore concerning that the CDC’s claim of mere days of persistence in the human body turned out to be untrue.

A study published in the journal Cell in January 2022, for instance, found vaccine mRNA persisting in some people two months after vaccination.

As observed by the authors of a study published in the Journal of Pathology, Microbiology and Immunology in January 2023, the persistence of vaccine mRNA would enable “prolonged spike protein production”—and therefore, expectedly, continued immune activation and chronic inflammation.

The Lie about Spike Protein Persistence
Accompanying the lie about the vaccine mRNA was the lie that the spike protein persists for at most “a few weeks”.

It was another claim based on hope, not science.

In fact, the spike protein has been found to persist in the body for months if not years.

A study published in Proteomics Clinical Applications in August 2023 found persistence of spike protein at six months post-vaccination.

On May 13 of this year, a study in Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics found persistence of spike protein at over eight months post-vaccination.

A study published the previous month found persistence of spike protein in the brains of hemorrhagic stroke patients at seventeen months post-vaccination.

A preprint study in February found persistence of spike protein in individuals at nearly two years post-vaccination.

So much for at most “a few weeks”.

Concerningly, one of the theoretical explanations in the literature for this persistence is continued generation of spike protein because of genetic material from the vaccines integrating into the DNA of vaccinated individuals.

The Lie about the ‘Harmless’ Spike Protein
Accompanying the lies about how long vaccine mRNA and spike protein would last in the body was the lie that the spike is a “harmless” piece of genetic material.

The media uncritically parroted that lie from the CDC despite study after study finding the spike protein to be toxic and pathogenic.

The persistence of spike protein from vaccination is associated with “post-COVID‑19 vaccine syndrome” (PCVS)—a term used in the literature to describe vaccine injuries resembling symptoms of what’s called “Long Covid”.

The Lie about Genomic Integration
The claim was also made by the CDC—and therefore reported as fact by the media—that it was scientifically impossible for the vaccine mRNA to become integrated into human DNA.

The CDC argued that since the mRNA never enters the cell nucleus, where the DNA resides, therefore it cannot integrate into the host genome.

But that is a non sequitur fallacy. The conclusion doesn’t follow from the premise because it overlooks the possibility of mRNA being reverse transcribed into DNA that could potentially enter the cell nucleus and integrate into the host genome.

An in vitro study published in February 2023 proved in the lab that reverse transcription of vaccine mRNA into DNA is possible in human cells.

It’s a salient fact that the vaccines were literally developed using gene therapy technology.

Whenever you would hear the “fact checkers” argue that it’s a “myth” that the vaccines were a brand-new technology because there were decades of research behind them, the allusion was to years of development of mRNA technology for gene therapy applications.

The professional propagandists masquerading as journalists just left out that little detail.

The FDA-Ignored DNA Contamination
In the literature, one argument made in favor of mRNA is that it is safer for gene therapy since DNA products would pose a greater risk of permanent alteration of the host genome.

And it has been known since early 2023 that reverse transcription of mRNA into DNA isn’t even necessary for genomic integration to theoretically occur because the vaccines are contaminated with plasmid DNA from the manufacturing process.

Accompanying the DNA contamination is what’s called a “promoter” sequence from simian virus 40—the “SV40” virus that infamously contaminated polio vaccines in the 1950s and 1960s.

While it is a short segment contaminating COVID‑19 vaccines, not the whole viral sequence, the SV40 promoter is known to help transport DNA through the nuclear membrane.

And once inside the nucleus, the foreign DNA can theoretically integrate into the host genome.

In fact, it is to reduce that risk that the FDA has set regulatory safety limits on the levels of DNA allowed in injectables.

As accurately observed by intrepid reporter Dr. Maryanne Demasi—a rare honest journalist—in an article about the FDA guidance proposed by Prasad and Makary,

Multiple independent labs have shown that residual DNA in the vaccines far exceeds safety limits. Student researchers in FDA’s own lab found residual DNA levels exceeded safety limits by up to 470 times. Yet the FDA continues to ignore this evidence. [Emphasis added.]

Prasad and Makary, too, ignore this evidence in their proposal to restore “trust” in the CDC’s vaccine recommendations while continuing push the mRNA COVID‑19 vaccines on the population.

Prasad and Makary’s Cognizance of the Lies
The two individuals proposing the new guidelines in the New England Journal of Medicine are certainly not incognizant of how the COVID‑19 vaccines were sold to the public based on lies.

As Demasi also pointed out, both men signed a Citizen Petition to the FDA in January 2023 criticizing government officials for claiming that the COVID‑19 vaccine would confer “herd immunity”, even though the clinical trials were not designed to determine whether the vaccines would prevent infection and transmission of the virus.

The petition also observed the dramatic increase in reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) following the COVID‑19 vaccine rollout, dwarfing all other events reported for the entire history of the program.

https://www.jeremyrhammond.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/image-1.png

They don’t mention it, but that includes over 38,000 reports of death following COVID‑19 vaccination—more than the number of deaths reported for all other vaccines combined for the life of the program.

Whenever safety signals are indicated by VAERS, the mainstream media feel it obligatory to point out that a causal relationship cannot be established by this data.

It is highly instructive how the media, to reassure the public about the safety of vaccines, tout VAERS as a robust post-marketing surveillance system that would identify any existent harms of vaccination; yet when the data show alarming safety signals, suddenly VAERS becomes terribly unreliable and unfit for purpose.

This is institutionalized cognitive dissonance.

The Unproven Mortality Benefit of COVID‑19 Vaccines
Another lie told by government officials was that the clinical trials demonstrated high vaccine effectiveness against severe illness or death from COVID‑19.

That claim was made, for instance, by CDC Director Rochelle Walensky and NIAID Director Anthony Fauci.

In an article published in February 2021 in JAMA, the journal of the American Medical Association, Walensky and Fauci brazenly lied that “Clinical trials have shown that the vaccines authorized for use in the US are highly effective against COVID-19 infection, severe illness, and death.”

In fact, the outcome measured in the trials as the basis for estimating vaccine efficacy was symptomatic infection.

Measurement of this outcome was based on the existence one or more symptoms of COVID‑19—whether severe or mild—plus a positive PCR test.

“Clinical trials have shown that the vaccines authorized for use in the US are highly effective against COVID-19 infection, severe illness, and death.”
The trials were not designed to determine effectiveness against the most important outcomes: severe disease, hospitalization, and death.

While severe outcomes were considered a “secondary endpoint” of the trials, they lacked adequate statistical power to assess vaccine efficacy for those outcomes.

Then once the FDA granted the vaccines “Emergency Use Authorization” (EUA) in December 2020—which is a regulatory status for products still considered experimental—the trials were effectively ended by vaccinating away the control groups.

Consequently, there remains a total absence of data from randomized controlled trials from which to determine long-term health outcomes between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals, including the effects of these mRNA products on all-cause mortality.

This is not a trivial oversight.

Even if effective for preventing death from the target disease, vaccines can have an overall negative impact on mortality.

This is because vaccines can have what are termed in the literature “non-specific effects”, which refers to effects of vaccinations unrelated to the intended effect of preventing illness and death from the target disease.

Two top researchers in this field are Dr. Peter Aaby and Dr. Christine Stabell Benn. An example of a detrimental non-specific effect they have highlighted is the diphtheria, tetanus, and whole cell pertussis (DTP) vaccine, which—like “non-live” vaccines in general—is associated with an increased rate of childhood mortality.

Aaby and Benn were among the authors of a study published in the Lancet journal eBioMedicine in 2017 finding that children who received the DTP vaccine “had 5-fold higher mortality than still unvaccinated children.”

As the researchers appropriately remarked:

It should be of concern that the effect of routine vaccinations on all-cause mortality was not tested in randomized trials. All currently available evidence suggests that DTP vaccine may kill more children from other causes than it saves from diphtheria, tetanus or pertussis. Though a vaccine protects children against the target disease it may simultaneously increase susceptibility to unrelated infections. [Emphasis added.]

Government policymakers, however, refuse to learn from the lessons offered by scientific inquiry.

They completely ignore the need for long-term studies to determine the effects of vaccines on overall health and all-cause mortality, just like they completely ignore the need to consider superior natural immunity as an opportunity cost of vaccination, or the need for an individualized risk-benefit analysis.

To obtain authorization, the FDA did not require the COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers to provide evidence for a mortality benefit of their products—and hence the pharmaceutical companies did not design their studies to test the hypothesis that there would be.

In fact, the six-month follow up data from Pfizer’s trial, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, showed fourteen deaths in the placebo group, only two of which were attributed to COVID‑19, and fifteen deaths among vaccinated subjects, resulting in an equivalent rate of death in both groups.

A notable disparity was one death from heart attack in the placebo group versus four among the vaccinated.

“I guess most of you think that we know what all our vaccines are doing. We don’t.”
Aaby and Benn were also coauthors of a Lancet preprint study published in April 2022 that reanalyzed clinical trial data for both Pfizer’s and Moderna’s products and found no mortality benefit from the mRNA COVID‑19 vaccines.

As another illustration of the institutionalized cognitive dissonance, observational studies are routinely touted by the CDC and media as absolute proof of an absence of harm from vaccines—yet whenever such a study does find an association between vaccination and some harm, we are reminded that this type of study design cannot prove causality.

As Dr. Aaby stated during a talk he gave in March 2019, “it’s important to recognize that no routine vaccine was tested for all the effect on mortality in randomized trials before being introduced.”

“I guess most of you think that we know what all our vaccines are doing,” he added. “We don’t.”

‘Safe and Effective’ or Highly Dangerous?
Setting aside the unproven claims of a beneficial effect on mortality, the FDA’s rubber stamping of COVID‑19 vaccines allows them to be marketed as “safe”.

We’ve already seen how that assertion is challenged by VAERS data. The many harms from the shots are also abundantly documented in the literature by observational studies, but even the data from the randomized controlled trials used by the FDA as supporting evidence call the description of “safe” into question.

A reanalysis of trial data published in the journal Vaccine in September 2022 found that the mRNA COVID‑19 vaccines “were associated with an excess risk of serious adverse events of special interest [AESI] of 12.5 per 10,000 vaccinated”—a 43% greater risk of an AESI in the vaccinated relative to the placebo control group.

In both Pfizer and Moderna trials, the excess risk of such serious adverse events “was higher than the risk reduction for COVID‑19 hospitalization relative to the placebo group”.

In other words, getting vaccinated was more likely to result in hospitalization for a serious adverse event of special interest than to prevent hospitalization for COVID‑19.

The ‘Badly Designed’ COVID‑19 Vaccine Clinical Trials
Problems with the COVID‑19 vaccine trials were also highlighted in a paper published this past January in the Journal of the Academy of Public Health.

The notable authors were Dr. Jay Bhattacharya and Dr. Martin Kulldorff, who also co-authored the Great Barrington Declaration of October 2020, which criticized the lockdowns and advocated the more sensible approach of “focused protection”.

Dr. Bhattacharya was nominated by Donald Trump to direct the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and has served in that role since April.

As Bhattacharya and Kulldorff noted in their paper, the original trials were “badly designed”.

The “fundamental design flaws” included the failure to measure the most important clinical endpoints: severe disease, hospitalization, and death.

They also acknowledged how government officials who routinely made claims about vaccine effectiveness that were unsupported by the scientific evidence—which they generously attributed to “a failure in the interpretation of the trials”.

As Bhattacharya and Kulldorff also observed,

When the bivalent booster was developed in 2022, pharmaceutical companies did not conduct proper randomized control trials. Instead, Pfizer and Moderna ran trials that had the immunogenicity of the bivalent boosters as the primary clinical endpoint. [Emphasis added.]

In other words, the FDA “looked only at whether the vaccine could produce antibodies in the patient population.”

Data from human subjects wasn’t even required. Pfizer’s trial “looked only at immunogenicity in mice.”

It was on that basis that the FDA rubber-stamped the shots.

In conclusion, Bhattacharya and Kulldorff called on the FDA to “require pharmaceutical companies to conduct trials with clinically and epidemiologically meaningful endpoints”—instead of trials that are “not useful.”

So, there you have it, straight from the current NIH director: the clinical trials used by the FDA rubber stamp the mRNA COVID‑19 were useless."

"The Regulatory Malfeasance and Scientific Fraud of FDA Authorizations
The Regulatory Malfeasance and Scientific Fraud of FDA Authorizations
When it comes to the continued practice of mass vaccinating children and pregnant women, it gets even worse.

To this day, the COVID‑19 vaccines remain FDA unapproved for children aged six months through eleven years.

Instead, the shots continue to be administered for this age group under “emergency use” authorization—notwithstanding the complete absence of any kind of emergency that could possibly justify such a mass uncontrolled experiment on the US childhood population.

To describe this as criminal recklessness is an understatement.

The FDA’s authorizations for young children were also not based on clinical trial data demonstrating safety and efficacy.

Instead, the FDA relied on “immunobridging” data. The FDA assumed vaccine effectiveness based on an arbitrarily defined level of antibodies in the blood.

In other words, the FDA relied on measurement of antibody levels generated by vaccination as a surrogate measure of immunity—even though no correlates of immunity have been scientifically validated for SARS‑CoV‑2.

In essence, to push through authorization of the vaccines for children, the FDA relied on scientific fraud.

Vinay Prasad and Marty Makary are perfectly aware of how unscientific the FDA’s authorizations were.
In their citizens petition to the FDA, they also criticized the agency for not requiring COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers Pfizer and Moderna to disclose in their package inserts that the measurement of antibody levels as a “surrogate endpoint” for vaccine effectiveness “has not been validated”.

Additionally, they cited an FDA advisory committee meeting in which a Pfizer representative acknowledged that they were “unable to really come up with an antibody threshold” because immunity is “a much more complex story and not just easily addressed with neutralizing antibodies.”

The FDA itself admitted at the meeting that measurement of antibodies has not been established as an “immune correlate of protection”, so in lieu of clinical trials demonstrating efficacy, the FDA was “using poor man’s immune correlates of protection”.

Additionally, pregnant women were excluded from the COVID‑19 vaccine clinical trials on the grounds that it would be unethical to subject expectant mothers to experimentation.

Yet the CDC recommends the shots for pregnant women, anyway, thus effectively moving the experiment out of a controlled clinical setting and instead treating the general population of pregnant women as subjects of a mass uncontrolled experiment in which properly informed consent is a logical impossibility.

So, ask yourself: Who is HHS really serving?

Is this really in the best interests of public health—or primarily to serve the financial interests of the pharmaceutical industry?

The answer to that question ought to be glaringly obvious to any sane person capable of rational and independent thought.

The Scientific Fraud of PCR Testing
We’ve already seen how the original trials asked the wrong question: whether the vaccines reduced the risk of symptomatic infection, instead of whether they reduced the risk of severe disease and death.

Aside from that problem, the resulting estimates of vaccine effectiveness may have been exaggerated due to the tool used to measure the primary endpoint: a positive PCR test.

The PCR tests for COVID‑19 are designed to detect tiny fragments of viral RNA, not to confirm the presence of whole viable virus.

Consequently, a positive result does not necessarily mean that the patient has an active infection.

The tests work by reverse-transcribing viral RNA into DNA and then cyclically amplifying the DNA until it meets a certain threshold for positivity.

This is called the “cycle threshold”, or “Ct” value.

The PCR tests for COVID‑19 are designed to detect tiny fragments of viral RNA, not to confirm the presence of whole viable virus.
During the lockdown madness, cycle thresholds for test positivity were set so high that, as the New York Times admitted in August 2020, “up to 90 percent of people testing positive carried barely any virus” and were “not likely to be contagious.”

Dr. Anthony Fauci himself admitted in July 2020 that PCR tests were being run at such high cycle thresholds that “the chances of it being replication competent are miniscule”, and the amplified RNA most likely represented “just dead nucleotides, period.”

This didn’t stop the “public health” establishment from counting anyone testing positive as a “COVID‑19 case”—regardless of symptoms.

In other words, to support “lockdown” policies and their coerced mass vaccination endgame, PCR tests were used to perpetrate systematic scientific fraud in the counting of “COVID‑19” cases.

The clinical trials for COVID‑19 vaccines upped the standard a bit: instead of just a positive PCR test, the FDA also required the presence of one or more symptoms of COVID‑19. Any mild symptom would do.

Exclusion of other potential causes for the reported symptoms was not required.

While that minimal standard may have reduced the likelihood of false positive PCR results, it did not solve the inherent problem of a false discovery rate.

“There are no credible COVID‑19 vaccine trial data.”
The false positive rate is related to test specificity and indicates the proportion of tested individuals who receive a positive PCR test despite not having a viral infection.

The false discovery rate is related to disease prevalence and indicates the probability that someone who receives a positive PCR test result does not actually have a viral infection.

The distinction is in the denominator: for the false positive rate, it’s everyone tested who does not have a viral infection, whereas for the false discovery rate, it’s everyone in the population who tests positive.

Imagine that the PCR test is 99% specific, meaning that, among everyone in a population who is tested, one out of every hundred people who are uninfected will receive a positive result. The false positive rate is 1%.

Now suppose that only one out every hundred people in the population have an infection, or a disease prevalence of 1%.

For every 1,000 people tested, only ten will have an infection. That leaves 990 people who are not infected—but among whom about 1% will still receive a positive PCR test result.

The result is twenty positive results, including ten false positives. That’s a false discovery rate of 50%.

Thus, when testing large numbers of people in a low-prevalence setting, even a highly specific PCR test can produce a high proportion of incorrect “positive” results.

In an October 2022 study in the journal Science, Public Health Policy & the Law, Dr. Sin Hang Lee, a pathologist and director of the Milford Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory in Connecticut, explained how the cycle threshold values for PCR tests were “an unproven surrogate” for detection of whole viable virus.

Technically, these are “reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction” assays, or RT-qPCR tests, typically referred to by the media as just “PCR” tests.

Dr. Lee used Sanger sequencing, a gold-standard method for verifying the nucleotide sequence of PCR-amplified DNA fragments, to reexamine test-positive patient samples acquired that January.

He found that SARS‑CoV‑2 was detected by both PCR and Sanger sequencing in only twenty-nine of fifty samples—a false discovery rate of 42%.

As Dr. Lee remarked,

Using RT‑qPCR tests with false-positive results to evaluate the endpoint in COVID‑19 vaccine development might have artificially inflated the vaccine effectiveness. . . . Without confirmatory Sanger sequencing of the RT‑qPCR products, the claim of the BNT162b2 [Pfizer-BioNTech COVID‑19 vaccine] being 95% effective against COVID‑19 becomes questionable. [Emphasis added.]

Dr. James Lyons-Weiler, Editor-in-Chief of the publishing journal, Science, Public Health Policy & the Law, further elucidated the implications. Assuming a 5 percent disease prevalence rate in the population, the 42% false discovery rate would mean that for every fifty true positives, there will be thirty-six false positive results. The number of “COVID‑19 cases” reported based on PCR testing would be overstated by a factor of 72%.

As Dr. Lyons-Weiler concluded, “There are no credible COVID‑19 vaccine trial data.”

That’s in addition to all the fatal flaws that prompted the current NIH director to characterize the clinical trials as worthless.

The argument could easily be made that the trials were much less than worthless.

Critical Analysis of the Proposed FDA Guidance
There’s also much more that could be said about the problems with COVID‑19 vaccines, like the immunological phenomenon of “original antigenic sin”, the problem of antibody class switching from neutralizing antibodies to IgG4 and potential “immune tolerance” to the spike protein, or the institutionalized failure to consider superior natural immunity as an opportunity cost of vaccination; but all of the above information is sufficient context for putting the newly proposed FDA guidance into proper perspective.

Recall the key question: Was this journal article by FDA officials a big victory for health freedom, or a public relations ploy aimed at disarming the health freedom movement?

So now, to try to find a reasonable answer to that critical inquiry, let us continue our examination of the guidance proposed by Prasad and Makary under the leadership of HHS Secretary Kennedy, who is in turn acting under the ostensible “leadership” of President Trump.

An Opinion Piece, Not FDA Policy
To start with, the article by Prasad and Makary in the New England Journal of Medicine does not represent any kind of official FDA guidance to the industry.

It is instead essentially an opinion piece reflecting the authors’ views and stated intentions, which is quite different from a change in government policy.

There is no legal or regulatory force behind their proposed guidance, and the ideas proposed would still need to be formally adopted within the FDA regulatory apparatus.

It’s a proposed change, not an achieved one—and this is not a trivial distinction.

Regulatory Sleight-of-Hand
According to Secretary Kennedy, the proposed new guidance shows that the FDA “is finally breaking away from the one-size-fits-all vaccine policy that authorized the COVID shots for every American over 6 months old.”

However, that conclusion is unsupported by Prasad and Makary’s description of the proposed FDA guidance for vaccine manufacturers.

Consider the following points:

Under the current regulatory structure, the FDA authorizes or approves formulations of COVID‑19 vaccines—not their specific use as a primary series versus booster doses.
The original vaccine trials were conducted for—and the initial authorizations were based on—formulations that are no longer in use and that aimed to generate neutralizing antibodies to the original Wuhan strain of SARS‑CoV‑2, which has long since been extinct outside of laboratories.
Because this coronavirus is constantly evolving, the manufacturers are instructed by the FDA produce “updated” formulations.
Each new formulation is designed to induce a sufficient level of neutralizing antibodies against the mutated spike protein to meet the regulatory “immunobridging” requirement.
The FDA does not require the manufacturers to provide clinical trial data supporting the safety and effectiveness of new formulations.
It is important to recognize that by limiting their proposed new FDA guidance strictly to booster doses, Prasad and Makary are indicating that, when it comes to the primary series of COVID‑19 vaccinations, absolutely nothing will change.

The FDA will not require supporting data from randomized controlled trials to support any new authorizations or approvals of “updated” COVID‑19 vaccines intended for use in previously unvaccinated individuals, including children and pregnant women.

On that basis alone, the proposed guidance must be seen as a cynical public relations stunt, not a sincere and honest effort to establish an evidence-based approach to vaccine regulation.

Making Randomized Controlled Trials Voluntary
After establishing the goal of restoring “trust” in the CDC’s vaccine recommendations and limiting their questioning of those recommendations to only annual COVID‑19 booster shots, Prasad and Makary begin to outline their proposed new FDA guidance as follows:

Moving forward, the FDA will adopt the following Covid‑19 vaccination regulatory framework: On the basis of immunogenicity—proof that a vaccine can generate antibody titres in people—the FDA anticipates that it will be able to make favorable benefit-risk findings for adults over the age of 65 years and for all persons above the age of 6 months with one or more risk factors that put them at high risk for severe Covid‑19 outcomes, as described by the CDC. For all healthy persons—those with no risk factors for severe Covid‑19—between the ages of 6 months and 64 years, the FDA anticipates the need for randomized, controlled trial data evaluating clinical outcomes before Biologics License Applications can be granted. Insofar as possible, when approving a Covid‑19 vaccine for high-risk groups, the FDA will encourage manufacturers to conduct randomized, controlled trials in the population of healthy adults as part of the post-marketing commitment. [Emphasis added.]

Let’s break that down and read between the lines.

First, they clearly indicate that, to ensure future authorizations of COVID‑19 booster doses for the elderly or anyone else with a “risk factor”, the FDA will continue relying on its “immunobridging” fraud—not placebo-controlled trials.

That is, the FDA would predetermine that “booster” doses of new COVID‑19 vaccines are “safe and effective”, provided the shots induce an arbitrarily determined level of antibodies.

Only if the manufacturers also wish their target market to include non-elderly people deemed “healthy” would the FDA require new randomized controlled trials.

In other words, whether new trials are conducted is entirely up to the vaccine manufacturers.

It doesn’t take a genius to anticipate the outcome of that disincentivizing framework.

The Broad Exclusionary Criteria for Voluntary Trials
As if it weren’t bad enough already that the proposed FDA guidance would essentially make new clinical trials voluntary, Prasad and Makary go further in their instructions to COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers for how to ensure EUA status or licensure.

In their journal article, they provide a table listing “underlying conditions” that the CDC has defined as “risk factors” for severe COVID‑19.

The list includes asthma; heart disease; diabetes; obesity; kidney, liver, or lung disease; immunodeficiency; cancer; use of corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive drugs; and current or former smoking.

Here is the full list presented in the NEJM article:

https://www.jeremyrhammond.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/fda-covid-19-booster-shots-1.jpg

By their own reckoning, Prasad and Makary anticipate that these criteria will facilitate the continued use of COVID‑19 booster shots for between 30% and 60% of the US population without requiring evidence from randomized controlled trials to support the policy.

Note that the list also includes pregnancy.

So, these top FDA officials—now branded as “MAHA” leaders—are instructing COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers, if they would like to conduct voluntary trials, to exclude pregnant women.

The FDA’s Preferred Study Design
Continuing in their article, Prasad and Makary further detail “the FDA’s preferred study design” for any voluntary trials.

To start with, they describe the “ideal population” for such trials as “the 50–64 year-old age group”.

In other words: Go ahead and exclude anyone under age fifty.

Prasad and Makary also tell Big Pharma what endpoint they should measure:

The FDA’s preferred primary end point in these trials will be symptomatic Covid‑19, with special attention paid to several secondary end points: severe Covid‑19, hospitalization, and death.

In other words: Go ahead and repeat the same poor design of your original trials that rendered them useless in the first place.

Under the proposed FDA guidance, the primary endpoint any new clinical trials would remain the same as the original trials: one or more symptoms of COVID‑19 plus a positive PCR test.

Like the original trials, meaningful clinical outcomes will be mere “secondary end points” to which the manufacturers should pay some attention, but for which they won’t be required to generate statistically significant data.

For the original trials, the FDA required an average estimated effectiveness against symptomatic infection of 50%. Prasad and Makary don’t specify what it would be for new trials. They only state that

Sample-size calculations should aim to demonstrate that vaccines reduce the incidence of the primary end point with a lower confidence interval bound that is ideally above 30%.

They don’t say what the upper confidence interval bound should be.

Why cite a lower bound without an upper bound? And instead of providing expected boundaries for confidence intervals, why wouldn’t they just state what average vaccine effectiveness would be acquired to gain FDA authorization or approval? Unless the aim was to leave enough wriggle room to authorize the shots even if falling short of 50% effectiveness against the practically meaningless endpoint of symptomatic infection?

In one regard, at least, the FDA officials appear to suggest a modest improvement over the original trials, which generally excluded people with a prior history of SARS‑CoV‑2 infection.

Of course, that didn’t stop the CDC from recommending the shots for people who’d already acquired natural immunity—which Prasad and Makary concede is “robust.”

Ostensibly to correct that oversight, Prasad and Makary suggest, “People who have had Covid‑19 in the past year should not be excluded—since evidence is needed for the average American.” (Emphasis added.)

That makes it sound as though the aim of their guidance is to produce data representative of the general US population. But that can’t be true since the average American isn’t healthy.

Ergo, there is again an encrypted underlying instruction here for the vaccine manufacturers wishing to target “healthy” Americans with their products: Go ahead and exclude from your trials anyone whose natural immunity to SARS‑CoV‑2 prevented them from getting COVID‑19 within the past year.

“The control group could receive a saline placebo, to permit documentation of the full adverse-event profile.”
Continuing, the FDA officials state that to “provide reassurance” to Americans that the “repeat-boosters-in-perpetuity strategy is evidence-based”, the duration of follow-up would need to be at least six months.

That’s enough time to enable the FDA to say it hasn’t lowered the standards from the original trials while enabling the vaccine manufacturers to hopefully avoid a finding of negative vaccine effectiveness, as observational studies have found when looking beyond six months since vaccination—including for children.

Furthermore, the use of a saline placebo would not be required.

Instead, Prasad and Makary explain that “The control group could receive a saline placebo, to permit documentation of the full adverse-event profile.” (Emphasis added.)

One must assume that the choice of the verb “could” instead of “must” was not unintentional.

“Balancing” Pharma Profits with Public Health
After providing those instructions to the vaccine manufacturers for how they can essentially rig any voluntarily conducted trials, Prasad and Makary preposterously assert that their proposed guidance “balances competing values.”

Just what “values” are they trying to “balance”?

“First,” they explain, “our acceptance of immunologic end points ensures that we can provide timely approval to a broad population.”

Translation: We need to serve Big Pharma’s financial interests by continuing the mass uncontrolled experiment of injecting millions of people with annual COVID‑19 shots, and so, to achieve that predetermined goal, we are going to continue perpetrating scientific fraud.

As they point out, “The range of diseases in the CDC definition of high risk of severe disease is vast, including obesity and even mental health conditions such as depression.”

Not to mention pregnancy.

“Estimates suggest that 100 million to 200 million Americans will have access to vaccines in this manner.”

Hooray. Mission accomplished.

The first “value” they wish to “balance” against other “competing” interests is thus to ensure profits for Big Pharma.

“The FDA’s new Covid‑19 philosophy represents a balance of regulatory flexibility and a commitment to gold-standard science.”
“Second,” they write, “our policy also balances the need for evidence.”

Translation: We must lower on our standards of evidence to be able to continue the policy of mass COVID‑19 vaccination.

They assert, “This policy will compel much-needed evidence generation.”

Except that it won’t. Any randomized controlled trials the manufacturers might conduct will be strictly voluntary, and even if they are conducted, they will just be more sham studies.

Demand for the shots is already low. As of April, according to the CDC, only 20.4% of adults have received the 2024 – 2025 formulations of COVID‑19 vaccines, with highest coverage among the elderly, among whom uptake is still just 39.1%.

Consequently, we can anticipate that Big Pharma will be willing to deprioritize healthy people under age 65 as a target population for their products to avoid having to produce evidence that the vaccines are safe and effective.

And even if not, whether a saline placebo is used for the control group will likewise be up to the manufacturers.

“Third,” Prasad and Makary continue, “our proposed postmarketing study does not preclude the conduct of additional randomized studies, particularly studies in pediatric populations.”

Translation: We’re not going to require you to conduct trials to provide evidence for our continued authorization of your products for children.

In concluding, they assert that “The FDA’s new Covid‑19 philosophy represents a balance of regulatory flexibility and a commitment to gold-standard science.”

But that is an inherent self-contradiction.

If they were committed to gold-standard science, they wouldn’t try to “balance” the need for evidence with their policy goal of continuing to inject millions of people with COVID‑19 shots annually.

The “regulatory flexibility” they refer to requires them to adopt such standards of evidence that the word “abysmal” hardly even applies; a more proper description is outright scientific fraud.

Their assertion that this represents “gold-standard science” is preposterous, an outrageous ongoing effort to gaslight the public—and now with the approval of the “MAHA” leadership.

The proposed FDA guidance would essentially continue to place the burden on the public to prove that a pharmaceutical product is dangerous and ineffective before it is pulled from the market—as opposed to requiring COVID‑19 vaccine manufacturers to prove that their gene therapy products are “safe and effective”.

Conclusion
This is a defining moment for the health freedom movement, and all the warrior moms and dads who’ve long been active in the grassroots health freedom movement are now being asked by people in the political “MAHA” movement to accept extraordinary compromises.

That is not an easy ask for many of these warriors—including all the “ex-vaxxers” who did follow the CDC’s recommendations only to see their children injured or killed by vaccines.

These victims of medical tyranny should not be told to be silent and withhold criticism on the grounds that we must support Bobby Kennedy and “trust” the plan.

People long involved in the fight against medical authoritarianism—whether parents or not—should not be ridiculed and dismissed with the strawman fallacy that they are expecting miracles from Secretary Kennedy when the miracle of government reform is precisely what Mr. Kennedy promised them if they voted for Donald Trump.

It comes down to the question of correct diagnosis.

Secretary Kennedy and many of his MAHA supporters diagnose the problem as “corporate capture” of government agencies like the FDA and CDC, and they fervently believe that if only the right person can be put into position within the halls of power that America will be made healthy again.

But the fundamental problem isn’t that corporations use government power to circumvent the free market to advance their financial agendas. The problem is that government agencies like the FDA and CDC exist to be captured in the first place.

It simply isn’t the case that the CDC et al. are “broken” and need to be “fixed”. There are no reforms that could possibly fix them because they are functioning exactly according to design.

Epilogue
Since I first conducted and started writing this analysis of the journal article by Prasad and Makary, on May 27, Secretary Kennedy posted a message to X stating that the recommendation “for healthy children and healthy pregnant women” had been removed from the CDC’s vaccine schedule.

His post contained a video of him making the announcement while standing alongside NIH Director Bhattacharya and FDA Commissioner Makary.

Secretary Kennedy

@SecKennedy
Today, the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from
@CDCgov
recommended immunization schedule. Bottom line: it’s common sense and it’s good science. We are now one step closer to realizing
@POTUS’s promise to Make America Healthy Again.

Accessing the CDC’s routine childhood vaccine schedule on the CDC’s website at the time showed that the last time this page had been updated was November 21, 2024. The page has now been updated as of May 29. The COVID‑19 vaccine, of course, remains on the schedule, with a link directing users to an updated “Notes” page.

The recommendation remains for COVID‑19 vaccination of children “Ages 6 month – 17 years who are NOT moderately or severely immunocompromised.”

The relevant change is that the CDC now states,

Shared clinical decision-making vaccinations are individually based and informed by a decision process between the health care provider and the patient or parent/guardian. Where the parent presents with a desire for their child to be vaccinated, children 6 months and older may receive COVID-19 vaccination, informed by the clinical judgment of a healthcare provider and personal preference and circumstances.

A link is provided to another page further explaining that a “shared clinical decision-making recommendation” is “when individuals may benefit from vaccination, but broad vaccination of people in that group is unlikely to have population-level impacts.”

Of course, all vaccinations should be based on an informed decision process between the health care provider and the patient or parent, and the fact that the CDC rejects this for other vaccinations just illustrates how perverse the system is.

There is nothing about the recommendation for COVID‑19 vaccination to occur as part of this “shared clinical decision-making” excluding healthy children.

As I’m writing this, the CDC’s page “COVID‑19 Vaccination for Women Who are Pregnant or Breastfeeding” still recommends the shots for pregnant women, declaring this “safe and effective” despite the absence of clinical trial data to support that claim.

The page indicates it was last updated on September 10, 2024, but a banner under the page title says, “COVID-19 vaccine recommendations have recently been updated for some populations. This page will be updated to align with the updated immunization schedule.”

Clicking the link to “learn more” lands one on the CDC’s vaccine schedule page, updated on May 29. Clicking from there to view the adult schedule, the COVID‑19 vaccine is listed as a “Recommended vaccination for adults who meet age requirement, lack documentation of vaccination, or lack evidence of immunity”.

Clicking to view the “Notes” page, it states that COVID‑19 vaccination is recommended for adults “Age 19–64 years”.

There is nothing on either page about healthy pregnant women being excluded from the CDC’s recommendation.

The only relevant change is to a second table listing recommendations by medical condition instead of by age. Previously, this table explicitly recommended COVID‑19 vaccination for pregnant women, whereas now “Pregnancy” is shown as a category for which the CDC offers “No Guidance”.

The CDC’s “Notes” page explains that healthcare providers should first look at the table listing recommendations by age, then by medical condition, then to consult the CDC’s dosing information on the same page, and finally to review the CDC’s contraindications and precautions.

Pregnancy is not listed as a contraindication to COVID‑19 vaccines or as a condition warranting any precautions.

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which colludes with the CDC to make its recommendations “standard of care” in pediatric practices across the country, “expressed relief” about the updated recommendations not matching Kennedy’s statement.
It appears that Kennedy’s claim that the CDC had removed its recommendation that healthy children and healthy pregnant women receive the shots was incorrect.

As Axios accurately observed, the CDC continues to recommend the shots for all children aged six months or older after consultation with a medical provider, thus “contradicting HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy’s push to drop the shots for healthy kids.”

The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which colludes with the CDC to make its recommendations “standard of care” in pediatric practices across the country, “expressed relief” about the updated recommendations not matching Kennedy’s statement.

Similarly, the updated recommendations do not exclude pregnant women, healthy or otherwise. Instead, the CDC opted to provide no specific guidance for vaccination during pregnancy while generally recommending the shots for all adults, especially those considered at higher risk from COVID‑19, while also telling providers that this list includes pregnant women.

That is hardly the same thing as the CDC excluding healthy pregnant women from its recommendations.

Since I finished writing my above analysis of the proposed FDA guidance, the FDA has approved Moderna’s new mRNA COVID‑19 vaccine, “mNEXSPIKE”. According to Moderna’s May 31 press release, it’s been approved “for use in all adults 65 and older, as well as individuals aged 12–64 years with at least one or more underlying risk factor [sic] as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).”

Actually, though, the FDA approved mNEXSPIKE “for use in individuals” meeting those criteria and who also “have been previously vaccinated with any COVID‑19 vaccine”. In other words, it has been approved specifically for use as a booster shot.

A footnote for that misleading statement in the press release links to the CDC’s page “Underlying Conditions and the Higher Risk for Severe COVID-19”, where it shows a list of these “risk factors”—including “Pregnancy and recent pregnancy”.

The press release explains how the FDA’s approval of the new vaccine was based on a clinical trial of “11,400 participants aged 12 years and older” designed “to demonstrate the non-inferior vaccine efficacy” compared to Moderna’s originally approved mRNA COVID‑19 vaccine, “Spikevax”.

The new vaccine “was found to have a similar safety profile” to the old one—which is hardly reassuring.

The new Moderna product was described as “a step toward next-generation coronavirus vaccines” by CBS News, which noted that it’s “a second option” and “not a replacement for the company’s existing shot”, which “doesn’t face those limits” of being approved only for individuals with “risk factors”.

Pregnant women were, of course, excluded from the clinical trial for Moderna’s new vaccine. It was a vaccinated versus vaccinated study, with no placebo control group.

For one arm of the study, only individuals previously vaccinated with a primary series were included, and for those over age 18, prior receipt of at least one booster does was required. A second arm did not require prior vaccination.

Moderna measured individuals’ “seroresponse” to the vaccine, or the change in antibody levels, and only estimated vaccine effectiveness relative to its original formulation.

The trial’s page on the database site ClinicalTrials.gov indicates that the trial data has not been published.

As with the original vaccines recommended by the CDC for pregnant women, the package insert for “mNEXSPIKE”—available on the FDA’s website—discloses that available data “are insufficient to inform vaccine-associated risks in pregnancy.”

Like the original vaccines, the new product “has not been evaluated for potential to cause carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or impairment of male fertility in animals.”

The reference in that statement to “male” fertility only is because a study was done in female rats. Moderna claims no “vaccine-related” adverse effects were observed, which raises the question of what effects were observed that Moderna presumed were unrelated. Notably, the description of this animal study does not indicate that an unvaccinated group of female rates was used for comparison.

The data disclosed in the insert reveals that the estimated relative vaccine efficacy of 9.3% was not statistically significant. That is, the new shot was not shown to offer significantly greater protection against symptomatic infection with circulating SARS‑CoV‑2 variants than the original vaccine targeting the spike protein of the original Wuhan strain. Effectively, the FDA approved the shot based only on antibody data and the scientific fraud of assuming that an arbitrarily determined increase equates to immunity.

This is what the FDA vaccine approval process looks like for the “next generation” of mRNA products under the now “MAHA”-approved regime.

The critical distinction between the uncompromising grassroots movement and the political charade in Washington should not be lost on health freedom advocates."

U.S. Health Secretary RFK Jr. Fires Entire CDC Vaccine Advisory Panel in Stunning “Clean Sweep”

U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has abruptly dismissed all 17 members of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)—the federal body that shapes America’s vaccine policy.

In a blistering op‑ed published Monday in The Wall Street Journal, RFK Jr. declared the panel “plagued with persistent conflicts of interest” and branding the current members as a shadowy cabal heavily influenced by pharmaceutical money.

He demanded “a clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science.”

It can be recalled that the ‘unsafe and ineffective’ COVID-19 vaccine was formally added to the routine immunization schedule for both children and adolescents by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on Thursday.

It is common knowledge that COVID-19 poses no threat to young children, that mRNA vaccinations against the virus are not effective or safe and that some people have even died after receiving a COVID vaccine. But the CDC and its advisory council continue to push for childhood vaccinations despite all these facts.

Back in October 2022, the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which provides advice and guidance to the Director of the CDC regarding the use of vaccines for the control of vaccine-preventable diseases, voted to recommend COVID-19 to be included in the 2023 childhood immunization schedule in 15 unanimous votes.

ACIP recommended the use of COVID-19 vaccines for everyone as young as 6 months and older. The COVID-19 vaccine and other vaccines may be administered on the same day.

According to RFK Jr.:

ACIP evaluates the safety, efficacy and clinical need of the nation’s vaccines and passes its findings on to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The committee has been plagued with persistent conflicts of interest and has become little more than a rubber stamp for any vaccine. It has never recommended against a vaccine—even those later withdrawn for safety reasons. It has failed to scrutinize vaccine products given to babies and pregnant women. To make matters worse, the groups that inform ACIP meet behind closed doors, violating the legal and ethical principle of transparency crucial to maintaining public trust.

In 2000 the House issued the results of an investigation of ACIP and another vaccine advisory committee under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration—the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee. It found that enforcement of its conflict-of-interest rules was weak to nonexistent. Committee members regularly participated in deliberations and advocated products in which they had a financial stake. The CDC issued conflict-of-interest waivers to every committee member. Four out of eight ACIP members who voted in 1997 on guidelines for the Rotashield vaccine, subsequently withdrawn because of severe adverse events, had financial ties to pharmaceutical companies developing other rotavirus vaccines. A 2009 HHS inspector-general report echoed these findings. Few committee members completed full conflict-of-interest forms—97% of them had omissions. The CDC took no significant action to remedy the omissions.

These conflicts of interest persist. Most of ACIP’s members have received substantial funding from pharmaceutical companies, including those marketing vaccines. The problem isn’t necessarily that ACIP members are corrupt. Most likely aim to serve the public interest as they understand it. The problem is their immersion in a system of industry-aligned incentives and paradigms that enforce a narrow pro-industry orthodoxy. The new members won’t directly work for the vaccine industry. They will exercise independent judgment, refuse to serve as a rubber stamp, and foster a culture of critical inquiry—unafraid to ask hard questions.

A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science. In the 1960s, the world sought guidance from America’s health regulators, who had a reputation for integrity, scientific impartiality and zealous defense of patient welfare. Public trust has since collapsed, but we will earn it back.

No sooner had the news dropped than vaccine stocks took a dive. Moderna, Pfizer, BioNTech, and Novavax all saw notable declines, according to Reuters.

Breaking: RFK Jr. Removes All Members of CDC Vaccine Advisory Committee
by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D.

"HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced late today that he is retiring all 17 members of the CDC vaccine advisory committee. “A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science,” Kennedy wrote in an op-ed published today in The Wall Street Journal.

U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced late today that the HHS is retiring all 17 members of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) vaccine advisory committee.

Kennedy announced the move in an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal. “Today, we are taking a bold step in restoring public trust by totally reconstituting the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP),” he wrote.

Kennedy noted that some of the current ACIP members were appointed in the final moments of the Biden administration. “Without removing the current members, the current Trump administration would not have been able to appoint a majority of new members until 2028,” he wrote.

The ACIP committee is responsible for shaping U.S. vaccine policy by issuing recommendations that become official CDC policy once adopted by the CDC director.

ACIP is described as an independent, nonfederal expert body of professionals with clinical, scientific and public health expertise.

The committee decides which vaccines should be recommended to the public, who should take them and how often — recommendations the CDC typically rubber stamps.

However, most members have financial ties to pharmaceutical companies marketing vaccines, or have worked with public health agencies to promote controversial vaccines, including the COVID-19, RSV and HPV shots.

These problems have plagued the committee for decades. A 2000 investigation by the U.S. House of Representatives found that enforcement of conflict-of-interest rules was “weak-to-nonexistent.” A 2009 HHS inspector-general report made similar findings, Kennedy wrote.

Investigations by The Defender in 2021 and 2024 also found that most committee members had direct ties to pharmaceutical companies.

Kennedy wrote that the committee has “never recommended against a vaccine — even those later withdrawn for safety reasons. He said the committee has failed to “adequately scrutinize” vaccines for babies and pregnant women.

“A clean sweep is needed to re-establish public confidence in vaccine science,” Kennedy wrote. “In the 1960s, the world sought guidance from America’s health regulators, who had a reputation for integrity, scientific impartiality and zealous defense of patient welfare. Public trust has since collapsed, but we will earn it back.

According to an HHS press release, 13 of the 17 sitting ACIP members were appointed in 2024. The release stated, “The prior administration made a concerted effort to lock in public health ideology and limit the incoming administration’s ability to take the proper actions to restore public trust in vaccines.”

STAT News also reported at the time that the appointments were a move by the Biden administration to stack the committee, intended to “insulate the scientific integrity of the panel from the incoming administration.”

ACIP’s next meeting is scheduled for June 25-June 27 at the CDC headquarters in Atlanta, the press release said."

Secretary Kennedy

@SecKennedy
·
14h

Yesterday, I retired 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices or ACIP, the @CDCgov external panel that wields the grave responsibility of adding new vaccines to the recommended childhood schedule. Over the coming days, I will use this platform to announce new members to populate ACIP. None of these individuals will be ideological anti-vaxxers. They will be highly credentialed physicians and scientists who will make extremely consequential public health determinations by applying evidence-based decision-making with objectivity and common sense.

I will also be tweeting examples of the historical corruption at ACIP to help the public understand why this clean sweep was necessary.

The most outrageous example of ACIP’s malevolent malpractice has been its stubborn unwillingness to demand adequate safety trials before recommending new vaccines for our children. Today, a compliant American child receives between 69 and 92 routine vaccines (depending on brand/dictated dosage) from conception to 18 years of age. This is up from 11 shots in 1986. ACIP has recommended each of these additional jabs without requiring placebo-controlled trials for any of them. This means that no one can scientifically ascertain whether these products are averting more problems than they are causing.

Many vaccine promoters have challenged this assertion. They are always wrong. Last week, @CNN, which has devolved into a shameless propagandist for Big Pharma, triumphantly announced that it had proof that my pronouncement that “there have been no placebo-controlled safety trials for any routine vaccines” was false. CNN gleefully proclaimed that it had found 257 placebo-controlled studies for routine vaccines.

So, allow me a moment to deconstruct CNN’s claims. Warning: this post may only be sufferable for science geeks like myself.

CNN is wrong. No routine injected vaccine on CDC’s schedule was licensed for children based on a placebo-controlled trial. In instances where a vaccine was used as a control, it too was never licensed based on a placebo-controlled trial. That is not conjecture. It is a fact based on FDA’s clinical trial data. (See http://sirillp.com/noplacebo). As Secretary of @HHSGov, acknowledging this lamentable truth is part of my promise of radical transparency.

The 257 studies cited by CNN unwittingly reflect the lack of safety trials underpinning CDC’s schedule. Despite CNN’s worldwide effort to crowdsource trials with a placebo control (per @US_FDA/@CDCgov, an “inert substance”*), this list, on its face, reflects that 236 of the studies clearly did not use an “inert” safety comparator in a trial to license an injected routine vaccine for children on CDC’s schedule.**

For the remaining 21 studies CNN’s list claims used an inert injection, 9 plainly did not:

• RCT 251, 252 (Varivax) injected an antibiotic, neomycin – not inert.
• RCT 84, 97 (HPV-16 and 16/18) injected aluminum adjuvant – not inert.
• RCT 215 (Almevax) injected another vaccine – not inert.
• RCT 55 (Lyophilized PedvaxHIB) injected lactose, aluminum adjuvant, and thimerosal – not inert.
• RCT 197 (Salk vaccine) injected 199 solution, synthetic tissue culture, ethanol, phenol red, antibiotics, and formalin – not inert.***
• RCT 168 (Dow’s MMR) injected full vaccine minus virus, including all stabilizers, antibiotics, diluent, preservative, and buffers – not inert.****
• RCT 189 (Menveo) injected Tdap+saline or Menveo+saline – not inert.

For the remaining 12 listed studies which may have had an inert injection, none was a trial relied upon to license a routine vaccine on CDC’s childhood schedule:

• RCT 170, 171, 172 (MMR VaxPro), 228 (PCV11), 136 (Vaxigrip), 242 (Antitetanus), and 122 (Chinese flu shots) trialed vaccines never licensed in the U.S. nor relied upon to license a U.S. vaccine.
• RCT 124 (Fluzone IIV3), 102 (WVV/SPV), and 188 (Menveo) trials occurred after each respective vaccine was licensed, hence were not relied upon for their licensure.
• RCT 176 (Mumps vaccine) was not relied upon by the FDA to license the current MMR vaccine. (See MMR-II clinical trial report in link above.)
• RCT 53 (PRP-D) was for a vaccine withdrawn soon after its introduction and not relied upon by the FDA to license any U.S. vaccine.

While these 12 studies were not relied upon to license a routine vaccine on the CDC’s schedule, they do reflect that a placebo-controlled trial of a vaccine is possible. They also reflect what can be learned when a placebo trial is performed. For example: RCT 136 found the vaccine ineffective; RCT 122 found that “severe adverse effects occurred in 69 (0·6%, 95% CI 0·5–0·8) recipients of vaccine compared with one recipient (0·1%, 0–0·2) of placebo.”; and RCT 124 found “the rate of hospitalization was actually higher in the [Fluzone IIV3] vaccine group than in the placebo group.”

The unfortunate reality is that placebo-controlled trials, however, do not occur and have not been relied upon when FDA licenses vaccines for injection during childhood or ACIP recommends the shot for addition to the CDC’s routine schedule.

CNN would have reached the same conclusion had it reviewed the FDA documentation for each vaccine, instead of relying upon a random, crowd-sourced list from the internet. CNN’s list ironically proves the lack of adequate safety trials for routine childhood vaccines.

It is time to stop playing games, such as CNN’s false gotcha. We have gone from 3 routine injections by age one in 1986 (the year the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act passed) to 25 routine injections by age one in 2025 (which now does not include Covid-19 vaccine). Because of the 1986 Act, every one of these products, save one, was developed by companies knowing they would almost never be liable for serious harm. During this same period, chronic diseases in our children exploded, most of which are caused by immune system dysregulation. If we are to identify the exposures that are causing this epidemic of autoimmune diseases, we need to rule out products given dozens of times to young children, specifically to modify the immune system, as potential culprits.

Our infants and children deserve the best safety trials possible to keep them safe. We should care as much about every child who could be injured by one of these products as we do every child who could be injured by an infectious disease. We must protect all children.

Notes:

*** Note that the current polio vaccines used in the U.S. are a different product than the polio vaccine developed by Jonas Salk in the 1950s—which was discontinued in the 1960s—including because the currently-used polio vaccines are “grown in vero cells, a continuous line of monkey kidney cells cultivated on microcarriers.”

Hence, the Salk trial was not relied upon to license any current polio vaccine.

THAT'S the kind of action from RFK we've been waiting for!!
Considering the extremes of "idealogical pro-vaxxers" we've been subjected to so far, some "ideological anti-vaxxers" wouldn't be all that objectionable.

Yesterday, I retired 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices or ACIP, the @CDCgov external panel that wields the grave responsibility of adding new vaccines to the recommended childhood schedule. Over the coming days, I will use this platform to announce new members to populate ACIP. None of these individuals will be ideological anti-vaxxers. They will be highly credentialed physicians and scientists who will make extremely consequential public health determinations by applying evidence-based decision-making with objectivity and common sense.

On Monday, I took a major step towards restoring public trust in vaccines by reconstituting the Advisory Committee for Immunization Practices (ACIP). I retired the 17 current members of the committee. I’m now repopulating ACIP with the eight new members who will attend ACIP’s scheduled June 25 meeting. The slate includes highly credentialed scientists, leading public-health experts, and some of America’s most accomplished physicians. All of these individuals are committed to evidence-based medicine, gold-standard science, and common sense. They have each committed to demanding definitive safety and efficacy data before making any new vaccine recommendations. The committee will review safety and efficacy data for the current schedule as well. I’m proud to announce ACIP’s new members:

Joseph R. Hibbeln, MD, is a psychiatrist and neuroscientist with a career in clinical research, public health policy, and federal service. As former Acting Chief of the Section on Nutritional Neurosciences at the National Institutes of Health, he led research on immune regulation, neurodevelopment, and mental health.

With Malone on board it's possible the mRNA train is not going to get taken out of service.

From 2020 onwards he was in charge of 10 billion dollars of mRNA vax development money he was spending at a rate of 2 billion a year according to investigative journalist George Webb. I ask, is he bending RFK or is RFK bending Malone.

Malone was an advisor to RFK during RFK's election campaign.

He's got plenty of experience inside the vaccine development scene that could be useful in dismantling it but is that really the direction we are going ?

I'm wondering the same thing, Norman. I remember Malone filing lawsuits to attack good people who disagreed with him in much the same manner as Corey Goode. When I saw him doing that I pretty much stopped paying attention to him. Also, his mRNA vax development past indicates to me he's not the right fit for this job.

Six Executive Orders That Could Shake Big Pharma—and Protect Natural Health
Alliance for Natural Health
06/12/2025
https://anh-usa.org/six-executive-orders-that-could-shake-big-pharma-and-protect-natural-health/

(Podcast at the link.
Malone is certainly an iffy factor as yet, but at least some good things appear to be happening...)

https://anh-usa.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/250605-EO-article.jpg

"A slew of recent Executive Orders quietly crack open Big Pharma’s monopoly, chip away at anti-competitive regulations, and defend Americans’ right to choose low cost options, including generic drugs and safe and effective natural health products.

THE TOPLINE

Some of the orders attack runaway drug prices by tying US costs to the lowest prices abroad, fast-tracking generics and biosimilars, and re-classifying certain pricey brands as over-the-counter.
Others tell agencies to catalog and kill any regulation that creates de facto monopolies or stretches statutory authority—targets that include FDA and FTC policies that sideline supplements through onerous pre-approval and clinical-trial demands.
Another order bars federal pressure to censor lawful speech, bolstering ANH efforts to let companies share truthful, science-backed claims about nutrients and natural remedies—an essential step toward a genuine right to rely on nature for health.
How many more headlines about record-shattering drug profits will it take before we admit the system is rigged? We could be a healthier nation and save billions in healthcare costs by embracing natural medicines. Instead, we have a system that has become completely dominated by Big Pharma and its government allies, one where disease treatment and prevention is the sole preserve of dangerous, expensive, often ineffective and often dangerous pharmaceutical drugs. The result? Record rates of chronic disease.

Yet several Executive Orders from the Trump Administration crack open the door to a different future. They challenge the price-gouging, dismantle the barriers that keep natural remedies in the shadows, and demand that bureaucrats stop twisting the law to protect corporate fiefdoms. We’re working on a number of exciting initiatives to leverage these actions into victories for the millions of Americans that wish to opt for natural health.

“We now have a rare opportunity to push back against Big Pharma’s dominance—built on anti-competitive practices, excessive regulation of natural products, distorted science, and censorship of truthful health information,” said ANH Executive Director, Rob Verkerk, PhD. “At ANH,” he continued, “we’re launching a raft of legal and regulatory actions that draw on executive orders, constitutional protections, legal precedent, and transparent science to help restore balance to our healthcare system.”

While commentators debate the broader political implications of the many actions taken by the Trump Administration over the last few months, our lens is simple: do any of these Executive Orders open doors for Americans to choose natural health options? If so, which ones? The answer, judged strictly on the text of some of these orders, is ‘yes’.

We’re cognizant of the polarized political climate we live in, but as ever, ANH is laser-focused on our mission and core principles: that is, fighting for everyone’s freedom to choose natural options to stay healthy. Whether Democrats or Republicans are in office, we look for opportunities to advance those goals.

Order What it does
EO 14212 – Establishing the President’s Make America Healthy Again Commission Establishes the President’s Make America Healthy Again Commission, creating a high-level federal task force to investigate and combat the alarming rise in chronic diseases—especially among children—by addressing root causes such as poor nutrition, environmental toxins, over-medication, and lack of transparency in health research.
EO 14297 – Delivering Most-Favored-Nation Prescription Drug Pricing to American Patients Directs HHS, FDA and the US Trade Representative to peg US drug prices to the lowest price paid in peer nations and to permit drug importation. If no progress is made, the order directs HHS to pursue rulemaking to impose Most Favored Nation drug pricing.
EO 14273 – Lowering Drug Prices by Once Again Putting Americans First Orders increased transparency for the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program, improvements for Medicare’s ability to obtain better value for high-cost drugs, accelerated approvals of generic and biosimilars, and an FDA plan to “re-classify” expensive brand drugs as OTC drugs.
EO 14267 – Reducing Anti-Competitive Regulatory Barriers Tells every agency to catalog and then repeal rules that create de facto monopolies or “unduly limit competition,” including licensure rules.
EO 14219 – Ensuring Lawful Governance & the “Department of Government Efficiency” Deregulatory Initiative Requires agencies to identify and mothball rules that are unconstitutional, lack clear statutory authority, or rest on expansive “Chevron-style” interpretations, among other things. Enforcement resources must be de-prioritized for such rules.
EO 14149 – Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship Protects Americans’ free speech rights by stopping the federal government from pressuring or working with others—like social media companies—to censor speech.
The Emerging Themes—And Why They’re Game-Changing for Natural Health
Taken together, a clear picture starts to emerge. These Executive Orders chip away at Big Pharma’s price gouging and monopolistic practices while opening the door to more competition from the natural products sector.

1. Whittling away Big Pharma monopolies

EO 14297 and EO 14273 strike directly at monopoly prescription drug prices. Allowing Big Pharma to charge exorbitant prices for drugs while also censoring information describing the healing power of food and supplements that are alternatives to those drugs is a crony capitalist double-whammy. These executive orders represent an encouraging first step toward loosening Big Pharma’s grip on the market by hitting them where it hurts: their pocketbooks.

2. Rolling back anti-competitive rules

EO 14267’s mandate to list and rescind rules that “create, or facilitate the creation of, de facto monopolies” is tailor-made for the government’s multi-pronged effort to tilt the scales in favor of Big Pharma at the expense of natural medicine.

For example, the FTC has been trying to force supplement companies to fund full-scale RCTs before making truthful health claims—an impossibility for non-patentable nutrients. It is a backhanded way of censoring many truthful health claims, depriving Americans of vital health information. ANH is already fighting back against this censorship with our recently-filed petition to the FTC demanding the removal of these absurd standards. If proven benefits cannot be communicated to consumers, food and supplements are at an incredible competitive disadvantage to drugs which alone can claim to treat or prevent disease.

Another crucial instance of anti-competitive regulations is the “drug preclusion” clause—what we at ANH have labeled the “back-channel” at the FDA that allows drug companies to turn supplements into drugs. For supplements that are considered “new” under the law—that is, they weren’t sold “in or as a supplement” before 1994—companies must submit a notification to the FDA with studies to prove that it is safe before that ingredient can be marketed (more on this below). But if a drug company files an investigational new drug application (IND) and studies that ingredient before the FDA receives an NDI notification on it from a supplement company, it can no longer be sold as a supplement. This creates a stacked deck in favor of Big Pharma monopolies. Several important supplements have been threatened or eliminated in this way, including pyridoxamine, CBD, and NMN.

Other anti-competitive government measures include the FDA’s war on homeopathy and compounded medicines, including compounded bioidentical hormones and bioidentical peptides.

3. A tool to rein in FDA overreach after Chevron

Executive Order 14219 tells every federal agency to drop any rule that isn’t the “best reading” of the law—language that arrives as the Supreme Court has scrapped Chevron deference, the doctrine that once let agencies stretch statutes with little push-back. Together, these shifts give natural-health advocates a powerful lever against government overreach.

A critical example of this kind of overreach is the FDA’s 2016 draft guidance on “new dietary ingredients” (NDIs). ANH has contended for years that the FDA’s guidance creates a de facto pre-approval system for “new” supplements that is not in accordance with the law, requiring expensive safety studies and the creation of extensive dossiers on new ingredients. This represents a major barrier to market entry that most supplement companies simply cannot afford—the complete antithesis of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994’s plain and intended meaning, which aimed to expand, not restrict, access to supplements.

Further, we’ve argued that the FDA has misapplied the law to widen the number of products subject to NDI rules while narrowly interpreting the exemptions.

All told, experts estimate that the FDA’s NDI requirements would lead to the elimination of over 41,000 supplements from the shelves.

By reining in the FDA’s anti-supplement interpretations, these legal shifts could further help dismantle the pharmaceutical monopoly over medicine and protect consumers’ access to affordable, science-backed supplements.

4. Re-opening the information pipeline

Executive Order 14149’s protections for free speech—especially when considered alongside the above-mentioned directives eliminating anti-competitive practices and excessive federal regulation—align closely with ANH-USA’s forthcoming petition on “authoritative statements.”

This initiative calls on the FDA to follow Congress’s 1997 mandate requiring that truthful, government-backed statements about nutrient-disease relationships be permitted on product labels and in advertising. Although the law allows supplement companies to use such statements to better inform consumers about the benefits of nutrients, the FDA has routinely blocked these claims in practice in direct violation of the statute.

When the White House says agencies may not suppress lawful speech, it strengthens the petition’s constitutional footing. Stay tuned for more details on this exciting project.

ANH General Counsel Jonathan Emord said, “The Executive Orders and Executive Memoranda compelling the agencies to abandon protectionist practices, open markets, and defend individual liberties are welcome and unprecedented, but there is so much to be done. Bureaucratic intransigence, the limits of power, and a timetable now of less than four years reveals these extraordinary measures to be not enough. Consequently, the battles for freedom, including freedom of informed choice, will depend on court victories, petitioning for changes in rules, and drafting and urging passage of new legislation atop the official measures from the White House. That’s where ANH plays a unique and indispensable role.”

Toward A Fundamental Right to Rely on Nature
Every American should enjoy the right to choose food‐ and nutrient-based strategies for health. By attacking monopoly pricing, dismantling anti-competitive regulatory moats, rescinding unlawful rules, and protecting truthful speech, these orders collectively nudge US policy toward recognizing that right.

ANH-USA has many irons in the fire at the moment to leverage these EO’s into tangible natural health victories. We will keep you updated on the latest developments."

RFK Jr. Rips CNN Over Claims on Vaccines and Placebo-Controlled Trials
Childrens' Health Defense
June 11, 2025
By Robert F. Kennedy Jr., HHS Secretary

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-rips-cnn-claims-vaccines-placebo-controlled-trials/?utm_source=luminate&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=defender&utm_id=20250611

Editor’s note: In a post on X, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dismantled claims made in a June 6 CNN article stating that the news team identified “258 randomized, controlled clinical trials of vaccines” and that “More than half of those studies — 153 — tested vaccines against placebos, and 127 of those studies used inert placebos.” Below is the full, unaltered text of Kennedy’s post.
“CNN is wrong,” Kennedy wrote. “No routine injected vaccine on CDC’s schedule was licensed for children based on a placebo-controlled trial. In instances where a vaccine was used as a control, it too was never licensed based on a placebo-controlled trial. That is not conjecture. It is a fact based on FDA’s clinical trial data.”

B]"[/B]Yesterday, I retired 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices or ACIP, the @CDCgov external panel that wields the grave responsibility of adding new vaccines to the recommended childhood schedule. Over the coming days, I will use this platform to announce new members to populate ACIP. None of these individuals will be ideological anti-vaxxers. They will be highly credentialed physicians and scientists who will make extremely consequential public health determinations by applying evidence-based decision-making with objectivity and common sense.

I will also be tweeting examples of the historical corruption at ACIP to help the public understand why this clean sweep was necessary.

The most outrageous example of ACIP’s malevolent malpractice has been its stubborn unwillingness to demand adequate safety trials before recommending new vaccines for our children. Today, a compliant American child receives between 69 and 92 routine vaccines (depending on brand/dictated dosage) from conception to 18 years of age. This is up from 11 shots in 1986. ACIP has recommended each of these additional jabs without requiring placebo-controlled trials for any of them. This means that no one can scientifically ascertain whether these products are averting more problems than they are causing.

Many vaccine promoters have challenged this assertion. They are always wrong. Last week, @CNN, which has devolved into a shameless propagandist for Big Pharma, triumphantly announced that it had proof that my pronouncement that “there have been no placebo-controlled safety trials for any routine vaccines” was false. CNN gleefully proclaimed that it had found 257 placebo-controlled studies for routine vaccines.

So, allow me a moment to deconstruct CNN’s claims. Warning: this post may only be sufferable for science geeks like myself.

CNN is wrong. No routine injected vaccine on CDC’s schedule was licensed for children based on a placebo-controlled trial. In instances where a vaccine was used as a control, it too was never licensed based on a placebo-controlled trial. That is not conjecture. It is a fact based on FDA’s clinical trial data. (See sirillp.com/noplacebo). As Secretary of @HHSGov, acknowledging this lamentable truth is part of my promise of radical transparency.

The 257 studies cited by CNN unwittingly reflect the lack of safety trials underpinning CDC’s schedule. Despite CNN’s worldwide effort to crowdsource trials with a placebo control (per @US_FDA/@CDCgov, an “inert substance”*), this list, on its face, reflects that 236 of the studies clearly did not use an “inert” safety comparator in a trial to license an injected routine vaccine for children on CDC’s schedule.**

For the remaining 21 studies CNN’s list claims used an inert injection, 9 plainly did not:

RCT 251, 252 (Varivax) injected an antibiotic, neomycin – not inert.
RCT 84, 97 (HPV-16 and 16/18) injected aluminum adjuvant – not inert.
RCT 215 (Almevax) injected another vaccine – not inert.
RCT 55 (Lyophilized PedvaxHIB) injected lactose, aluminum adjuvant, and thimerosal – not inert.
RCT 197 (Salk vaccine) injected 199 solution, synthetic tissue culture, ethanol, phenol red, antibiotics, and formalin – not inert.***
RCT 168 (Dow’s MMR) injected full vaccine minus virus, including all stabilizers, antibiotics, diluent, preservative, and buffers – not inert.****
RCT 189 (Menveo) injected Tdap+saline or Menveo+saline – not inert.
For the remaining 12 listed studies which may have had an inert injection, none was a trial relied upon to license a routine vaccine on CDC’s childhood schedule:

RCT 170, 171, 172 (MMR VaxPro), 228 (PCV11), 136 (Vaxigrip), 242 (Antitetanus), and 122 (Chinese flu shots) trialed vaccines never licensed in the U.S. nor relied upon to license a U.S. vaccine.
RCT 124 (Fluzone IIV3), 102 (WVV/SPV), and 188 (Menveo) trials occurred after each respective vaccine was licensed, hence were not relied upon for their licensure.
RCT 176 (Mumps vaccine) was not relied upon by the FDA to license the current MMR vaccine. (See MMR-II clinical trial report in link above.)
RCT 53 (PRP-D) was for a vaccine withdrawn soon after its introduction and not relied upon by the FDA to license any U.S. vaccine.

While these 12 studies were not relied upon to license a routine vaccine on the CDC’s schedule, they do reflect that a placebo-controlled trial of a vaccine is possible. They also reflect what can be learned when a placebo trial is performed. For example: RCT 136 found the vaccine ineffective; RCT 122 found that “severe adverse effects occurred in 69 (0·6%, 95% CI 0·5–0·8) recipients of vaccine compared with one recipient (0·1%, 0–0·2) of placebo.”; and RCT 124 found “the rate of hospitalization was actually higher in the [Fluzone IIV3] vaccine group than in the placebo group.”

The unfortunate reality is that placebo-controlled trials, however, do not occur and have not been relied upon when FDA licenses vaccines for injection during childhood or ACIP recommends the shot for addition to the CDC’s routine schedule.

CNN would have reached the same conclusion had it reviewed the FDA documentation for each vaccine, instead of relying upon a random, crowd-sourced list from the internet. CNN’s list ironically proves the lack of adequate safety trials for routine childhood vaccines.

It is time to stop playing games, such as CNN’s false gotcha. We have gone from 3 routine injections by age one in 1986 (the year the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act passed) to 25 routine injections by age one in 2025 (which now does not include Covid-19 vaccine). Because of the 1986 Act, every one of these products, save one, was developed by companies knowing they would almost never be liable for serious harm. During this same period, chronic diseases in our children exploded, most of which are caused by immune system dysregulation. If we are to identify the exposures that are causing this epidemic of autoimmune diseases, we need to rule out products given dozens of times to young children, specifically to modify the immune system, as potential culprits.

Our infants and children deserve the best safety trials possible to keep them safe. We should care as much about every child who could be injured by one of these products as we do every child who could be injured by an infectious disease. We must protect all children.

** While the above addresses injected vaccines, CNN’s cited list also includes 10 trials for rotavirus vaccine, given by oral drops, but none of these trials used saline only drops. Instead, RCT 205, 207, 208, 209, 210, 213 (Rotarix) contained dextran, sorbitol, amino acids, dulbecco’s modified eagle medium, calcium carbonate, and xanthan; RCT 211, 212 (RotaTeq) contained polysorbate 80, sucrose, citrate and phosphate; and RCT 206, 214 (Rotavac) included neomycin sulphate, kanamycin acid sulphate, trehalose, lactalbumin hydrolysate, human albumin, potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate, dipotassium hydrogen orthophosphate, and trisodium citrate dihydrate. The list also included three trials of an inhaled flu vaccine; the controls in RCT 104 were OPV+saline or LAIV (a vaccine), hence neither inert; in RCT 106 the control “consisted of normal allantoic fluid harvested from uninfected eggs stabilized with sucrose–phosphate–glutamate”; and, in RCT 109, the control was “intranasal spray of egg allantoic fluid containing sucrose-phosphate-glutamate.”

*** Note that the current polio vaccines used in the U.S. are a different product than the polio vaccine developed by Jonas Salk in the 1950s—which was discontinued in the 1960s—including because the currently-used polio vaccines are “grown in vero cells, a continuous line of monkey kidney cells cultivated on microcarriers.”

Essentially, a pep talk.

This thread opened with a very enthusiastic group of doctors focused on health and some kind of health revolution. We're getting tossed around in a multifaceted storm of resistance to the health revolution.

In this video almost the same group of enthusiastic doctors are having a natter. Dr Group, in particular, lays into the political spectator-ship even among internet Dr Gurus. That's a vortex we could all get sucked into as pathetically as popcorn or chocolate munching cinema spectators, instead of a healthy living transformation.

Healthy living is the whole package, spiritual, mind and body. For RFK to succeed in his part of things, we've got to rise to the occasion with him. Even if he's faked his stance a little we still have to rise to the occasion and sweep him along with us.

We're not spectators, we're IT. The elected representative executives are just holding bunches of keys to open doors we would otherwise have to stand in front of contemplating force.

Speaking of force, the host of this conversation is an ex-navy seal.

"Join us in telling the new committee members they have an opportunity – and a duty – to end ACIP’s long tradition of prioritizing Pharma profits at the expense of public health.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) will hold its first meeting under new Health and Human Services leadership on June 25, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. EDT, June 26, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.,EDT, and June 27, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. EDT.

Among several topics up for discussion and voting is what’s next for COVID-19 shots.
https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/06/09/2025-10432/meeting-of-the-advisory-committee-on-immunization-practices#p-14
...The time allotted for public comment provides a great opportunity to tell the new committee members exactly what we think of COVID shots. Let’s give it to them straight: There is no scientific justification for continuing a program for a vaccine that doesn’t prevent transmission or infection – so take it off the market!

As mainstream media continues imploding over news of HHS Secretary Kennedy’s clean sweep of ACIP, let’s welcome the new members by letting them know we take great interest in every one of these meetings and our voices will not be silenced.

Be sure to take action no later than the June 20 deadline. Comments will not be accepted after 11:59 p.m. ET on Friday.

Take Action. Send a Message to ACIP.
We need to let ACIP know that, in addition to being ineffective when it comes to preventing transmission or infection, COVID shots:

Can’t be justified when, prior to the availability of COVID shots, “the median infection fatality rate of COVID-19 was estimated to be 0.034% for people aged 0–59.”
Have resulted in a 318% higher mortality rate among quadruple-jabbed youth compared to those who skipped the shot.
Have led to unprecedented accounts of death and injury following vaccination with VAERS reporting 1,664,527 injuries including 38,666 deaths as of May 30, 2025.
Pose egregious health threats to our nation’s children – including infants as young as six months old.
In addition to COVID shots, the committee will also be discussing vaccines for anthrax, chikungunya, cytomegalovirus (CMV), Human papillomavirus (HPV), influenza, Lyme disease, meningococcal disease, pneumococcus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) vaccines for adults, and RSV vaccines for maternal and pediatric populations.

Recommendation vaccine votes are scheduled for HPV, influenza, meningococcal disease, RSV vaccines for adults, and RSV vaccine for maternal and pediatric populations. Vaccines for Children (VFC) votes are scheduled for COVID-19, HPV, influenza, and RSV.

With such a huge number of vaccines on the agenda, now is the perfect time to emphasize the need for double-blind inert placebo studies on all vaccines before they can be brought to the market. This gold standard of scientific investigation has not been applied to vaccines on the routine childhood schedule. The methodology of vaccine study has to change to protect our nation’s children from the risks of poorly-tested products.

The June 25–27 meeting will take place in Atlanta. If you’re going to be in the area and would like to make a comment in person, you need to submit a request at https://www.cdc.gov/acip/meetings/index.html before 11:59 p.m. EDT, June 20, 2025.

Written public comments must also be received by June 20. Just use the button below and you can use the suggested reply as written, or edit it to include your own points.

Join us in telling the new committee members they have an opportunity – and a duty – to end ACIP’s long tradition of prioritizing Pharma profits at the expense of public health.

Thank you for taking action.

This is heartbreaking.

RFK Jr. just exposed that the Biden administration was releasing migrant children to random adults—without background checks or identity verification.

“The Biden administration lost track of all those children because they were emphasizing speed over security.”

“They wanted to get the kids out of US custody, so they were handing them off to anybody.”

“I've watched horror stories of the same person picking up child after child after child using different names and different addresses.”

“One of the addresses was a strip club.”

“One of the addresses was a parking lot.”

“One of the addresses was an empty lot that was filled with shipping containers.”

“This character was getting all these kids.”

“One person got 42 kids to one address.”

“What we're doing now is DNA testing on every sponsor, we're doing personal identification, we're doing background checks, and we're doing income verification.”

RFK Jr. Shocks Congress With Brutal Message to Top Democrat Rep -- Vigilant Fox

RFK Jr. confronted the top Democrat on the committee and revealed he’d taken $2 million from Big Pharma—more than anyone else in the room.

RFK Jr. just walked into Congress and set the place on fire.

They were not ready for this.

Rep. Dingell thought she had Kennedy cornered on drug prices—then he dismantled her argument in one fell swoop.

But the real firestorm came when he called out the one Democrat Rep. who took more Big Pharma money than anyone else on the committee.

Before you can fix a broken system, you have to acknowledge just how broken it really is.

That was the message from HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as he opened his testimony before Congress with a sobering diagnosis of America’s healthcare crisis.

“The United States remains the SICKEST developed nation,” he said. “And yet we spend $4.5 trillion annually on healthcare, 2 to 3 times more per capita than comparable nations.”

Kennedy didn’t just point to waste; he warned that the entire system is becoming unsustainable. Healthcare costs are rising faster than the economy, while health outcomes keep sliding. Americans are paying more than ever, and getting sicker in return.

“If we don’t stanch this trend, we will ransom our children to bankruptcy, servitude, and disastrous health consequences.”

More money isn’t the answer, Kennedy argued. It’s about how we spend it. “We won’t solve this problem by throwing more money at it,” he added. “We must spend smarter.”

That means cutting the bureaucracy, fixing misaligned incentives, and making sure dollars actually go toward improving health, not just managing disease.

That’s when Kennedy unveiled his historic 7-part budget proposal, a sweeping reform plan designed to flip the healthcare system on its head.

1. Tackle mental health and addiction head-on: “These issues now rival chronic diseases in their impact… HHS will aggressively combat the opioid crisis, especially the spread of synthetic drugs like fentanyl.”

2. Prioritize nutrition and healthy lifestyles: “The president's budget requests $94 billion in discretionary funds to support these priorities, including the Administration for a Healthy America.”

3. Clean up the U.S. food system: “We will equip FDA to remove harmful chemicals from food and packaging and close the GRAS (‘generally recognized as safe’) loophole.”

4. Refocus NIH and CDC research priorities: “We’ll end gain-of-function experiments and eliminate funding for research based on radical gender ideology. At the CDC, we’re returning to core missions—tracking diseases, investigating outbreaks, and cutting waste.”

5. Eliminate DEI funding and fight real poverty: “We will move beyond lip service to communities of color and take meaningful action to address their needs.”

6. Modernize cybersecurity and health IT: “The AI revolution has arrived… We’re using it to manage healthcare data securely and speed up drug approvals.”

7. Rebuild public trust: “Trust that eroded through years of industry capture, waste, and misplaced priorities.”

“We will launch a new era of transparency in public service, creating an honest, science-driven HHS that answers to the president, to Congress, and the American people.”

Washington Post Reports on ‘Plan to Vaccinate All Americans, Despite RFK Jr.’ -- Children's Health Defense

Vaccine makers, pharmacists, professional medical societies and others opposed to recent changes in vaccine policy are banding together to create their own system for recommending and purchasing vaccines in a move designed to bypass government health agencies’ recommendations, The Washington Post reported.

Members of the new group, all of whom profit from the vaccine industry, along with some state health officials and a “new advocacy group,” are strategizing ways to preserve the vaccine status quo under U.S. Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

The anonymous group, which hopes to create “a nongovernmental vaccine system” for vaccine recommendations and purchasing, according to the Post, is engaged in a series of discussions.

Topics include ordering vaccines directly from manufacturers and prioritizing recommendations from medical associations rather than from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which makes vaccine recommendations to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The move comes as Kennedy dismissed all of ACIP’s sitting committee members earlier this month due to concerns over conflicts of interest in the committee. He filled eight of the 17 committee seats a few days later.

Commenting on industry insiders’ efforts to create a new commission, research scientist James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., told The Defender:

“They want to create and lend authority to a corporation-backed, corporation-friendly committee to replace the one that was just disbanded. These moves would represent replacing the facade of regulating vaccines by a government agency with overt industry self-governance and regulation.”

The Post called the move by the unspecified group of actors “extraordinary,” but conceded that it “faces major challenges.”

For example, insurance companies typically don’t cover shots that aren’t recommended by ACIP. An ACIP recommendation is also the basis on which the federal Vaccines for Children Program pays for vaccines for minors whose families can’t afford them. That program covers vaccine costs for about half of U.S. children.

Also, in many states, pharmacists’ ability to prescribe or administer vaccines is tied to the adult and child immunization schedules recommended by ACIP. And state laws for school vaccine requirements, as well as requirements for healthcare workers, are typically tied to ACIP recommendations.

Another problem, according to the Post, is that “potential competing recommendations could sow confusion among doctors as well as patients if it becomes unclear which recommendations to follow.”

Lyons-Weiler said physicians should be wary of any recommendations coming from the nongovernmental group, especially because participating in federal programs while failing to comply with ACIP regulations could violate statutes.

“The dismissed ACIP committee members can form whatever opinion group they want, but physicians follow their recommendations over the rules and regulations of the HHS at their own peril,” he said.

With RFK, Jr pushing for bio-surveillance, Kristi Noem pushing for "Real ID", Trump promoting Stargate, etc, etc, it's looking like "new boss same as the old boss". The question now remains--Will the people reject this tyranny in mass? If not, we're all phukt.

I wonder about what I observe from listening to the collected people of various POV. I listened to the 5 Docs tonight. One person who stands out to me is Carrie Madej. She has been rejecting tyrrany by focusing beyond the horrorific "facts" to prayer, worship and gratitude. She has a relationship to a higher power that works in her life. She is so beautifully radiant.

With God working with us, we thrive. People are discovering this more and more.

I feel that the way to reject the SYSTEM behind all tyrrany may come EASILY with developing a relationship to GOD as WE UNDERSTAND God. The way to overcome this place of suffering from evil is to simply bring God in and focus on this ineffable and allow the Presence.

IMO we are susceptible to terrible manipulation out of our fear and sense of power lessness. People in my life I love dearly are TIED to the System in believing it MUST EXIST for them to live. The latest example is my brother (taking the statins and BP pills and flu shots) and sister in law (having several severe medical issues) who might SAY they believe in God and go to church but don't feel empowered to follow their God Given Insight about how to be healthy and live in the world. I try to talk to them about my own experience and they cannot hear what I am trying to convey. I try to talk about how we do not NEED the SYSTEM if we get our own power source.

I KNOW that whatever the world my throw my way, I am able to deal with it. I CERTAINLY do not choose to be physically tortured by the Medical Industrial Complex and BELIEVE this is NECESSARY? IMO truthfully the buy in to the SYSTEM is out of Ignorance and Fear and a cut off Source connection.

It seems that the "world" has always been a SYSTEM all about power and control. The whole structure lives in our minds. that is why you really need this relationship. IMO this starts teaching us what is behind what is happening. It gives the mind a differnt POV. It TELLS me what will help me. I know that because I AM WHO I AM, by my existence, I am not OF THE WORLD. EVIL (live backwards) will not thwart my LIFE. KNOWING NO. NO. NO I choose something REAL and TRUE so I REFUSE the deep LIE of the SYSTEM> and I am not a victim.

I feel if others would allow themselves to experience what I feel (and others), they would NATURALLY be unrestrained by the control SYSTEM.

I think these Docs of Critically Thinking FEEL connected to Source.

Trump’s Nominee for CDC Director Grilled About Vaccines, Censorship During Confirmation Hearing

"President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) this week faced off against U.S. senators who wanted to know her views on vaccines and whether she supported recent changes made by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

During Wednesday’s U.S. Senate confirmation hearing, Susan Monarez, Ph.D., fielded questions about Kennedy’s decision to dismiss the 17 sitting members of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) and appoint seven new ones. Senators also asked Monarez if she would consider rejecting the new committee’s recommendations.

If confirmed, Monarez would be tasked with accepting or rejecting ACIP’s recommendations on vaccination practices.

Monarez affirmed her belief that “vaccines save lives,” and pledged to prioritize vaccine availability. She said mRNA vaccines are “safe and with demonstrated efficacy,” and that she was unaware of any confirmed scientific link between vaccines and autism.

Monarez avoided directly answering questions from several Democratic senators about whether she disagreed with any of Kennedy’s decisions while in office.

The roughly two-hour hearing before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) was held at the same time as the ACIP meeting that many senators said they were very concerned about.

The HELP committee has not yet scheduled a vote on whether to advance Monarez’s nomination to the full Senate.

Monarez pledges to rebuild trust in public health agencies

Trump nominated Monarez after the White House abruptly withdrew its nomination of Dr. Dave Weldon to lead the agency. Weldon failed to secure enough votes, Politico reported, because of comments he made suggesting a link between autism and vaccines.

Monarez, who has a doctorate in microbiology and immunology, had served as acting director of the CDC before her nomination. She previously held roles at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and in the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

She was also previously deputy director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services created by the Biden administration to accelerate “high-risk, high reward” biomedical research. ARPA-H is modeled after the U.S. military’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

Medical freedom advocates have voiced concerns about Monarez’s work in biosecurity and her role in these organizations.

In her opening remarks, she pledged to rebuild trust in public health agencies, modernize the CDC and local health infrastructure with state-of-the-art technologies, and strengthen the agency’s capacity for evidence-based rapid decision-making capabilities.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) used the hearing to sound the alarm about proposed cuts to Medicaid. Sens. Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-Del.) and Tammy Baldwin (D-Wis.) expressed frustration with cuts and changes to the CDC and asked Monarez about her role in those changes and whether she supported them.

Monarez largely evaded the questions, saying she had limited knowledge about the cuts and promising to look into any concerns raised.

Sanders also condemned Kennedy’s announcement Wednesday that the U.S. would end funding for the Gates Foundation-backed Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, claiming it will lead to 1.2 million preventable deaths. He asked Monarez if she agreed with Kennedy that “we should end our support for life-saving vaccines.”

“I think vaccines save lives,” Monarez responded. “I think that we need to continue to support the promotion of utilization of vaccines. I wasn’t involved in that decision-making. If I’m confirmed as a CDC director, I will certainly look into it, and I’m happy to follow up.”

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) questioned Monarez about whether she believed Dr. Francis Collins and Dr. Anthony Fauci acted appropriately when they suppressed dissenting views on COVID-19, including those of Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, now head of the National Institutes of Health.

“It is not something I would do,” she said, when pressed.

Paul also asked about U.S. public health agencies’ collaboration with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and about gain-of-function research during the pandemic and during her time at the CDC.

Monarez said she hadn’t had the opportunity to look at that research, but shared Paul’s concerns.

“There’s about 10 books written about it,“ Paul said. “Fifteen million people died. You’re going to be in charge of infectious disease, you know, you’d think you might have an opinion on, you know, where this came from and what happened.”

RFK Jr. Clarifies Stance on Wearables
by Brownstone Institute
July 3, 2025

"Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s recent remark in a congressional hearing that he envisions “every American is wearing a wearable within four years” caused an uproar among his supporters and critics. This week, he clarified his position about technology being temporary and data being private.

By Charles Eisenstein

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s remark in a congressional hearing last week that “My vision is that every American is wearing a wearable within four years” stirred an uproar in the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) circles, as one influencer after another scrambled to denounce his statement and accuse him of being a sellout or a traitor.

Ignoring his staunch decades-long advocacy of civil liberties, these critics took his statement as proof that he is advancing a totalitarian plan to continuously monitor every person’s body.

Since Kennedy has in the past warned about precisely this — the “internet of people” in which not even our own heartbeat is private — I reached out to him to see if he’d changed his mind.

“What were you thinking?” I asked.

Kennedy admitted that he chose his words poorly.

“What I was trying to say is that I want this technology to be universally available as one of the ways people can get on top of their health,” he explained.

“Of course I don’t want to mandate it. And the idea of everyone’s body being hooked up to a data center somewhere is horrifying. This data should be private, and when it is shared with the device provider it must be subject to health privacy laws.”

Those answers are consistent with his long-standing positions. However, there are other issues involved besides privacy.

I asked, “Aren’t you concerned about the health effects of a Bluetooth device affixed to your body 24/7?”

After all, during his presidential campaign, he spoke out about the health hazards of wireless radiation.

“Yes,” he replied. “Personally, I am concerned about it, but HHS [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] doesn’t have a policy. We are going to initiate research on the topic, though, so that Americans can make an informed decision about whether the risks of these devices outweigh the benefits.”

A deeper issue is the basic direction of healthcare: do we continue down a technological path, or do we turn back toward nature? The MAHA community, comprising high-tech biohackers alongside back-to-the-land homesteaders, is far from unanimous on this issue.

“Is this really the path?” I asked him. “Is the future of health one of increasing dependency on technology? Are we to accept a transhumanist future where flesh merges with machine?”

Kennedy was clear that he doesn’t agree with that vision either.

“Technology has its place,” he said, “but for most people it should be a temporary aid to help us recover good eating habits. The blood glucose monitors help people see in real time the impact of their dietary choices. But once they learn the ropes, most people shouldn’t have to wear them long-term.”

He continued, “Everyone is making this more complicated than it has to be. The basics of health are simple: wholesome, natural food, and the right amount of exercise. Wearables can help people make good choices, but they can’t make the choices for them. That’s up to each one of us.”

Obviously, Kennedy had used an ill-considered figure of speech when he spoke of “every American” wearing a device. What was more alarming than his words, though, was how swiftly so many MAHA influencers turned on him.

It isn’t the first time. Whenever he makes a necessary political compromise or appoints someone who isn’t an anti-vax hardliner, many in the movement accuse him of treason.

The reflex to excommunicate anyone who makes an ill-considered remark smacks of the kind of cancel culture that the health freedom movement rightly resisted during the COVID-19 era. A movement is not built by constantly scrutinizing every word and gesture for ideological correctness.

Kennedy faces enormous political headwinds and bureaucratic inertia in carrying out his most ambitious goals. He has been as bold as it is possible to be while still keeping his job.

If he is to achieve anything significant in such circumstances, he needs the active support of a united movement to bring political pressure to bear on the forces — in Congress, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and even within HHS itself — that stand in his way.

Those of us who have spent decades as dissidents and critics of the system have developed reflexes of opposition that are now counterproductive.

We tend to default to suspicion and, because we have been lied to, manipulated, persecuted and betrayed so many times, and are hypersensitive to any indication that it is about to happen again. But the present moment calls for a different attitude.

Righteous crusaders feel heroic when they refuse to compromise and denounce anyone who does. They are pure. They are “right.” But they will never participate in actual change.

The hysterical reaction to Kennedy’s verbal misstep draws from this reflexive repudiation of those who sacrifice their purity by engaging the messiness of the real world to actually get things done.

Because of his position, Kennedy cannot hold a hard line anymore. Someone still needs to hold it, though. That is the job of the movement. We can hold a vision of a truly transformed healthcare system beyond the horizon of current political practicality, while supporting those like Kennedy who are taking the steps to get there.

After the sound and fury of this latest contretemps subsides, the movement can discuss the legitimately difficult issues that it has stirred. What is the proper role of technology in healing? How can we protect data privacy without compromising the data’s utility?

When we focus on measurement, whether of blood sugar or some other health metric, what other information are we missing?

Is human progress a matter of dominating and controlling nature? Or is another kind of progress available to us that seeks to participate, not dominate, and that recognizes a source of intelligence beyond ourselves?

Those who uphold a vision of a reunion of nature and civilization are right to be vigilant against the techno-totalitarian and transhumanist potential of medical technology like wearables. But let’s not allow our vigilance to be hijacked by divisive forces seeking to neutralize our movement.

Vaccine Lobbyists Deny Calling RFK Jr. ‘Direct Threat to Public Health,’ Declare Support for MAHA
by Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/vaccine-lobbyists-deny-calling-rfk-jr-direct-threat-to-public-health-declare-support-for-maha/?utm_source=cc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=defender&utm_id=20250703

"A leading biotech industry trade group denied any knowledge of a document purportedly containing the minutes of an April 3 meeting during which they criticized Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., who said he received the document “anonymously by whistleblowers,” first went public with it on Tuesday.

Editor’s note: The Defender was unable to authenticate the April 3 BIO meeting minutes document or communicate directly with its source. However, our writing and editorial team spoke directly with James Lyons-Weiler and, on the basis of that conversation, judged the document likely to have originated from a reliable source.

A leading biotech industry trade group denied any knowledge of a document purportedly containing the minutes of an April 3 meeting of its Vaccine Policy Steering Committee (VPSC) during which members discussed Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “anti-vaccine stance” and called him a “direct threat to public health.”

Research scientist and author James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., first went public with the document on Tuesday, publishing it on Substack and in an article for the Brownstone Institute. He said he received it “anonymously by whistleblowers.”

In a statement provided to The Defender on Tuesday, a Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) spokesperson said:

“Earlier today, a blog site posted an article based upon what it claimed is a leaked memo from BIO regarding our Vaccines Task Force. The purported memo was not produced by BIO. We have never seen or heard of this document and it certainly does not accurately represent the spirit, strategy, or mission of BIO’s work.

“We are aligned with Secretary Kennedy and the President’s mission to ‘Make America Healthy Again.’”

However, that statement contradicts the meeting minutes, which quote Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a Pfizer board member, as saying, “MAHA [Make America Healthy Again] is a cover for an anti-vaccine campaign.”

A U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) spokesperson told The Defender:

“Secretary Kennedy is not anti-vaccine — he is pro-safety, pro-transparency, and pro-accountability. His longstanding advocacy has focused on ensuring that vaccines and all medical interventions meet the highest standards of safety and are backed by gold-standard science.

“The fact that a prominent, taxpayer-funded lobbying organization like BIO would entertain language about ‘neutralizing’ a sitting Cabinet official, whose focus has been on restoring scientific rigor and prioritizing public health over special interests, is both concerning and revealing.”

According to the document circulated by Lyons-Weiler, BIO members discussed strategies to counter Kennedy’s growing “anti-vaccine rhetoric.”

These included engaging with other federal and state policymakers to sidestep Kennedy, repositioning vaccines as “national security assets,” and focusing public messaging “on science” and the “economic benefits” of vaccines.

Lyons-Weiler stands by document’s authenticity

Lyons-Weiler stood by the veracity of the document and his sources. Commenting on BIO’s statement that the group didn’t produce the document, he told The Defender:

“While it is exciting and reassuring to see BIO’s unreserved support for the MAHA initiative and the Kennedy evidence bar, we had sufficient information to determine to our satisfaction that the document was most likely real. Nevertheless, we ran it with caveats.

“In the interest of journalistic integrity, should evidence come forward that the document was in some way falsified, and was provided as some sort of ruse, we would be happy to publish that information as well, and let the public decide.”

On whether the document may have been leaked by “nefarious” actors, Lyons-Weiler said, “That is speculative, but one could only guess whether this would then perhaps represent a type of corporate espionage, with organizations which not so long ago left the trade association.”

“If so, it could be an attempt to divide BIO from the MAHA agenda at HHS,” Lyons-Weiler said. “Either way, I’m excited to see them ready to engage in objective and ethical biomedical research.”

In November 2024, Pharma giant GSK ended its membership with BIO. A GSK spokesperson told Fierce Pharma the company “opted not to renew its BIO membership for 2025 following an annual evaluation of its corporate memberships and trade association participation.”

GSK followed in the footsteps of other pharmaceutical companies, including Pfizer, UCB, WuXi AppTec and Takeda, who also recently left BIO, Fierce Pharma reported.

Vaccine makers raise investor concerns, but not vaccine safety concerns

AstraZeneca, Bayer, Bristol Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Gilead Sciences, Johnson & Johnson, Merck, Moderna, Novartis, Novavax, Novo Nordisk, Roche and Sanofi are among the major pharma companies listed as members of BIO.

According to the document, participants in the April meeting included Silvia Taylor, executive vice president and chief corporate affairs and advocacy officer at Novavax; Jim Wassil, executive vice president and chief operating officer of vaccine innovation company Vaxcyte; and Gottlieb, who in addition to being a Pfizer board member is also a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and former commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Wassil zeroed in on shareholder concerns, noting that investors are “sitting on the sidelines for the next 6-9 months” because the vaccine “pathway to approval is unpredictable and politicized.”

There was no mention in the meeting minutes of the need to improve vaccine safety. However, members purportedly discussed how to improve communication with the new administration “using their words — safety, efficiency, health resilience, transparency.”

John F. Crowley, president and CEO of BIO, also allegedly participated in the meeting.

The document allegedly shows that Crowley proposed a “creative communication campaign” targeting legislators and influencers instead of working “directly with RFK Jr.” The campaign would enlist the help of unions and conservative-leaning, pro-vaccine organizations like the American Enterprise Institute.

Crowley also allegedly suggested that BIO spend $2 million of its $4 million cash reserves on “vaccine programs.” The meeting included a discussion of BIO’s new “WhyWeVaccinate” campaign.

The document also suggests that “it is time to go to The Hill and lobby that it is time for RFK Jr to go … communicate what’s going on in business.”

It is unclear whether “The Hill” refers to Capitol Hill or to a publication by that name popular among policymaking circles.

A Novavax spokesperson contacted by The Defender declined to comment. Wassil and Gottlieb did not respond to a request for comment.

Despite claim of support, BIO has questioned some of RFK Jr.’s moves

In their statement, BIO emphasized the organization’s pro-vaccine campaign.

“We also believe strongly in the vital role that vaccines play for public health, and we will continue to be strong advocates for scientific rigor and the importance of vaccines to protect our children, our citizens broadly — and to protect and strengthen America. The BIO vaccines campaign supports this effort,” BIO said.

In spite of its stated support for Kennedy and the MAHA agenda, BIO has previously questioned some of Kennedy’s moves as health secretary.

In March, following the resignation of Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., former FDA director responsible for authorizing vaccines, under pressure from Kennedy, BIO said it was “deeply concerned” Marks’ resignation would “broadly impact the development of new, transformative therapies to fight diseases for the American people.”

Last month, following Kennedy’s dismissal of all 17 members of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s vaccine advisory committee, BIO said it was “greatly concerned about the uncertainty created by the abrupt dismissal of the serving committee members.”

BIO allegedly contributed to the censorship of non-establishment views concerning COVID-19 during the pandemic.

According to “Twitter Files” documents published in January 2023 by journalist Lee Fang, BIO “fully funded a special content moderation campaign designed by a contractor called Public Good Projects” during the pandemic. The campaign worked with Twitter “to set content moderation rules around COVID ‘misinformation.’”

According to Open Secrets, 63 of BIO’s 100 lobbyists in 2024 previously held government jobs, while BIO has spent $890,000 on lobbying efforts so far this year.

Health and medical freedom advocates have said that a “revolving door” between federal public health agencies and Big Pharma has compromised the ability of those agencies to effectively regulate the industry.

In its statement, HHS said that Kennedy and HHS are working to restore trust in public health and vaccines.

“Under Secretary Kennedy’s leadership, HHS is exposing decades of waste, fraud, and abuse, eliminating conflicts of interest, and restoring evidence-based policy to medicine and public health. The Department will stay focused on our mission, which is to protect the health and well-being of the American people,” HHS said.

The 'plot' to take down RFK Jr looks familiar -- Investigative Journalist Maryanne Demasi, PhD

A leaked document this week reveals how powerful pharmaceutical interests are plotting to remove RFK Jr. from office. I’ve seen this playbook before—because a decade ago, they used it on me.

This week, the Brownstone Institute published a leaked internal memo that confirmed what many of us have long suspected—there is a coordinated plot to remove Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from office.

The document, reportedly from the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO)—the largest pharmaceutical lobby group in the US—outlines a US$2 million campaign to “neutralise” Kennedy before September.

It calls for a covert assault on his credibility through media manipulation, political pressure, and behavioural messaging—while quietly working to fracture his support base.

According to the April 3 memo, BIO’s Vaccine Policy Steering Committee sees Kennedy’s reforms as a threat to their financial future.

His proposals—to restore manufacturer liability, require long-term vaccine safety data, and reintroduce rigorous placebo-controlled trials—risk dismantling the regulatory shortcuts Big Pharma has relied on for years.

So they laid out a plan to co-opt media influencers, partner with trusted conservative figures like Dr. Mehmet Oz, align with think tanks like the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), and flood the airwaves with emotionally charged messaging.

The aim is not to educate the public—but to “inspire and frighten” them into compliance by manipulating sentiment.

Maryanne Demasi PhD is an investigative journalist who writes for online media and top tiered medical journals. For over a decade, she was a TV presenter for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).

RFK Jr. Hit With Lawsuit Over Changes to COVID Vaccine Policies for Kids, Pregnant Women
by Michael Nevradakis, Ph.D.
July 8, 2025
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-lawsuit-covid-vaccine-policy-kids-pregnant-women/?utm_source=cc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=defender&utm_id=20250708

(MANY hyperlinks in the article--not embedded here)

"The 42-page lawsuit, filed Monday by six medical groups, alleges the changes to the COVID-19 vaccine recommendations are “baseless and uninformed” and place pregnant women and children at “grave and immediate risk.” The lawsuit’s lead plaintiff, the American Academy of Pediatrics, lists Merck, Sanofi and Moderna among its donors.

Six medical organizations are suing Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and several other public health officials and agencies over recent changes to COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women.

According to the 42-page lawsuit, filed Monday in federal court in Boston, the new recommendations are “baseless and uninformed” and place pregnant women and children at “grave and immediate risk.”

The lawsuit alleges the changes will lead to “decreased rates of vaccination, increased rates of transmission, long-lasting illness, and ultimately deaths among pregnant women, unborn children, and all children.”

The complaint also claims Kennedy violated federal law when he issued an internal directive to change the recommendations instead of following the “longstanding process” for making changes to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) immunization schedules.

Plaintiffs include the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American College of Physicians (ACP), the American Public Health Association, the Infectious Diseases Society of America, the Massachusetts Public Health Association, the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine, and a physician named in the complaint as “Jane Doe,” who is 20 weeks pregnant and allegedly faces “barriers to access to the vaccine.”

The plaintiffs seek an injunction against the directive, request the restoration of the COVID-19 vaccines to the list of recommended immunizations for pregnant women and healthy children and a court order compelling Kennedy to “announce on X that those immunizations are now reinstated to the CDC immunization schedules.”

Other defendants named in the complaint include the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the CDC and its acting director Matthew Buzzelli, Director of the National Institutes of Health Jay Bhattacharya and Marty Makary, commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Pharma has ‘tremendous financial incentive’ to ‘preserve the status quo’

Attorney Richard Hughes IV, a Georgetown University law professor who, according to The New York Times, is “leading the effort” to challenge the directive, said Kennedy “aims to destroy vaccines.”

But according to Kim Mack Rosenberg, general counsel for Children’s Health Defense (CHD), “The medical cartel — funded extensively by the pharmaceutical industry — has a tremendous financial incentive to preserve the status quo.”

Karl Jablonowski, Ph.D., senior research scientist for CHD, noted that the lawsuit “fails to mention that several plaintiffs, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American College of Physicians and the Infectious Diseases Society of America, received millions of dollars from the CDC to promote COVID-19 injections.”

“People who make a lot of money pushing COVID vaccines want to force a recommendation for more COVID vaccines,” Jablonowski said.

The AAP, for instance, lists pharma giants Merck, Sanofi and COVID-19 vaccine manufacturer Moderna among its donors. The organization also closely collaborates with corporations such as Coca-Cola.

Last month, two of the plaintiffs — the AAP and the ACP — signed on to the “Vaccine Integrity Project,” a new initiative seeking to bypass public health authorities through the creation of “a nongovernmental vaccine system” for vaccine recommendations and purchasing.

The group is funded by iAlumbra, a nonprofit founded by Walmart heiress and billionaire philanthropist Christy Walton, known for her anti-Trump advocacy.

Dr. Jane Orient, executive director of the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, suggested that the organizations suing Kennedy may be concerned that evidence will come to light questioning the safety and efficacy of vaccines.

Orient said:

“These organizations evidently consider themselves to be the ultimate authorities on all vaccines and seem to feel threatened by the possibility that a government advisory committee might not agree with their position that all ‘approved’ or ‘recommended’ vaccines are ‘safe and effective’ — and necessary.”

Mack Rosenberg said the liability shield that vaccine manufacturers enjoy “allows them to exercise incredible hubris,” adding that “they desperately fear loss of this extraordinary protection.”

She added:

“The irony of the changes to COVID-19 jabs recommendations is that they actually empower physicians to do their jobs and provide individualized medical care to their patients. One has to ask why these entities fear that.”

Directive ‘arbitrary and capricious,’ lawsuit alleges

The complaint extensively references a May 27 video Kennedy posted on X, in which Kennedy, Bhattacharya and Makary announced the removal of the COVID-19 vaccine recommendation for pregnant women and healthy children, citing insufficient data to show that these populations benefited from the vaccine.

The lawsuit calls the directive “arbitrary and capricious” and questions Bhattacharya and Makary’s past opposition to various COVID-19 pandemic-related measures.

The complaint notes that Bhattacharya co-authored the Great Barrington Declaration, which advocated for herd immunity and targeted measures during the pandemic. The lawsuit characterized this as advocacy in favor of “the uncontrolled spread of an infectious disease to control an epidemic.”

Makary “previously made headlines for his comments during the pandemic, including advocating in favor of natural immunity, questioning the requirement for booster shots in younger people, and opposing vaccine mandates,” the lawsuit claims.

But according to Orient, throughout history, epidemics were controlled by natural immunity and measures such as vector control. “Locking down everybody was the unprecedented action,” she said.

The lawsuit also claims that the COVID-19 vaccines are FDA-approved and that a “wealth of data and peer-reviewed studies” demonstrate their safety and efficacy.

Pfizer’s Comirnaty vaccine and Moderna’s Spikevax vaccine are fully approved for ages 12 and older. But for children under age 12, the vaccines are administered under emergency use authorization.

Novavax’s Nuvaxovid vaccine is fully approved only for people 65 and older and those between 12 and 64 who have a health condition placing them at increased risk of COVID-19 infection.

Plaintiffs criticize new CDC vaccine advisory committee

Last month, Kennedy dismissed the 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) — the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee. He subsequently named eight new members to the committee.

During the new members’ first meeting, some members questioned CDC claims about the safety of COVID-19 shots and the virus’s threat to children. The committee also said it plans to examine the cumulative effect of the childhood vaccine schedule.

The lawsuit questions the qualifications of seven of ACIP’s new members, claiming they “do not possess the required scientific and medical expertise to serve on ACIP.”

The complaint also questions Kennedy’s claims that the 17 former members of ACIP had conflicts of interest. “None of these accusations are remotely true,” according to the complaint.

Orient disagreed. “It was the ACIP that Kennedy fired that was likely unlawful,” she said.

ACIP also voted last month to no longer recommend flu vaccines that contain thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative linked to neurodevelopmental disorders. The lawsuit cites a statement by the Infectious Diseases Society of America that said the vote was “politically motivated” and “not based on science.”

The complaint differentiates thimerosal, “which breaks down into ethylmercury” from “harmful forms of mercury like methylmercury.” But according to Brian Hooker, Ph.D., chief scientific officer for CHD, this distinction is “absolutely preposterous.”

“This was shown to be wrong in a seminal study by Burbacher et al., which showed that thimerosal exposure resulted in higher amounts of mercury metal essentially locked into the brains of macaque monkeys. The researchers could not determine the half-life of that mercury in the brain because it was longer than the study itself.”

In March, the AAP recommended annual flu shots for all children ages 6 months and older for the next cold and flu season.

Lawsuit claims ‘wealth’ of studies show COVID shots are safe — but doesn’t cite any

The complaint claims there is a “wealth” of data and studies showing the safety and efficacy of COVID-19 shots for kids and pregnant women, but doesn’t cite any studies.

Several peer-reviewed studies link COVID-19 shots with risks for pregnant women. An animal study published in the journal Molecular Therapy Nucleic Acids in March found that mRNA injections cross the placenta and enter the fetus within one hour, where they develop into spike protein and remain in the body after birth.

Another animal study, published in the journal Vaccines in March, found that COVID-19 vaccines decreased the number of primordial follicles in female rats by up to 60%, which may reduce women’s lifelong egg supply.

According to a study of 1.3 million Czech women published last month in the International Journal of Risk & Safety in Medicine, the rate of successful conception — a pregnancy leading to live birth nine months later — for women who received the COVID-19 vaccine was “substantially lower” than for unvaccinated women.

According to “The Pfizer Papers,” a set of 450,000 documents related to the licensing of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, 72% of recorded adverse events were in women. Babies had to be delivered early, women hemorrhaged during childbirth, and nursing babies of vaccinated women experienced adverse effects.

Pregnant women also experienced side effects. Pfizer lost the records of 234 pregnant women who participated in the clinical trials for the vaccine, but for the 36 pregnant women whose records survived, over 80% lost their babies.

Last month, some of the plaintiffs signed a letter to insurers, urging them to continue covering COVID-19 shots for pregnant women despite the new recommendations.

Other recent studies have linked COVID-19 vaccines to health risks in children. According to a study published in the journal Pediatric Rheumatology in May, children and adolescents who received at least one COVID-19 vaccine had a 23% higher risk of developing autoimmune disease compared to unvaccinated children.

A preprint study published in May 2024 of 1.7 million children in England found cases of myocarditis or pericarditis only in those children who received the COVID-19 shots. No cases were identified in children who didn’t receive the vaccine.

Citing rising maternal mortality and “the sickest generation of American children in history,” Laura Bono, vice-president emerita of CHD and mother of a vaccine-injured child, said the plaintiffs should use their resources to solve these public health issues instead of on this lawsuit.

“Rather than spending money on a lawsuit to preserve the status quo, these associations should support their missions by looking for answers to address the declining health of mothers and children,” Bono said.

The FDA Approved Hundreds of Drugs Without Proof They Work

"Story at-a-glance
Results of a two-year investigation found that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved nearly 75% of new drugs between 2013 and 2022 without meeting its own basic standards
Some cancer and Alzheimer’s drugs were fast-tracked using surrogate markers like tumor shrinkage or protein levels, not real improvements in survival, memory, or function
Dangerous side effects — including brain inflammation, hemorrhage, and blindness — were linked to drugs approved on minimal or flawed data, with thousands of deaths occurring each year
The reporters created a searchable database on FDA drug approvals made between 2013 and 2022 — use it to check if any of your prescriptions meet the four scientific standards
Always ask if a drug shows real-world benefits, look up its approval history, wait on new drugs, review your prescriptions, and work with a doctor who questions the system

Every year, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates $3.9 trillion worth of products, operating with a budget of approximately $6.9 billion (based on 2024 data)1 — it’s one of the most powerful agencies in the country today. Medications (and medical devices) make up a significant portion of the products the FDA regulates and, once green-lit, pharmaceutical companies rake in billions of dollars in profits.
However, there’s one significant dilemma about this system — many of these medications passed FDA approval based on flimsy, incomplete, or nonexistent evidence.

Most FDA-Approved Drugs Did Not Meet the Agency’s Basic Criteria
A two-year investigation conducted by The Lever and the McGraw Center for Business Journalism uncovered a disturbing pattern within the FDA — In nearly a decade, the agency approved hundreds of prescription drugs without requiring substantial and robust proof of their effectiveness.2

These findings were based on various evidence, including “government reports, internal FDA documents, investigators’ notes, congressional testimony, court records and more than 100 interviews with researchers, federal officials, and patients,” the Children’s Health Defense reports.3

•The FDA relied on four essential standards to assess a drug’s effectiveness and safety — According to the authors of the report, while these criteria don’t confirm “sound scientific evidence,” they do provide the minimum standard that determines drug manufacturers have given “substantial” evidence to back up their claims. These include:

◦Control group — Patients were tested versus a control group that received a placebo treatment or comparator drug.

◦Replication — There must be at least two “well-controlled” trials that also prove the drugs work as they should.

◦Blinding — The subjects and their physicians must not be aware which among the participants are receiving the drug and which ones are in the control group.

◦Clinical endpoint — Instead of relying on surrogate markers like lab results, the studies must show a significant effect on the patients’ survival or function.

However, after an intensive analysis, the reporters found that the majority of the FDA-approved medications failed to meet these basic criteria.

•Nearly 3 out of 4 new drug approvals did not comply with these criteria — Among all the drugs approved by the FDA between 2013 and 2022, 73% failed to meet these foundational standards that prove the drugs work as expected.4 “Fifty-five of the approved drugs met only one of those four standards, and 39 met none of them,” the CHD notes.

•Drugs were green-lit despite insufficient data presented by manufacturers — The Lever found that more than half of approvals were based on preliminary data — without considering sound evidence, such as if the patient experienced fewer symptoms, had improved function, or lived.

•Particularly concerning are cancer drugs — Based on their findings, of the 123 FDA-approved cancer medications, only 2.4% met all four of the FDA’s scientific criteria. On the other hand, 29 of these drugs tested (23%) did not meet a single criteria.

To ensure transparency and accuracy, the investigative report was guided by a 14-member advisory committee composed of “physicians, epidemiologists, biostatisticians, a patient advocate, an FDA insider, and an FDA advisor.” Many of them were shocked by this investigation’s findings. Diana Zuckerman, founder and president of the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit National Center for Health Research and one of the advisers, said:

“I’ve been discouraged about the FDA before, but the last few years have been the worst. The scientific bar is often so low it would be impossible to lower it much further.”5

FDA Fast-Tracked Approvals and Lowered Standards Due to External Pressure
The FDA wasn’t always so lax on drug approvals; in fact, its system was established based on hard-won scientific standards set by Congress after several medical tragedies occurred. “These new laws, sometimes called “super-statutes” because they are so far-reaching, authorized the agency to require drug companies to provide evidence that their drugs are safe and effective before they could go on the market,” the report said.6

•AIDS — the worldwide crisis that changed it all — When AIDS became a pandemic during the 1980s, killing 46,000 people and leaving 37,000 with a novel condition, activist groups turned to the FDA, seeking access to new drugs. These groups partnered with drug makers, who were only too eager to sell their products.

“Together, the activists and companies argued before the FDA that the compassionate, lifesaving strategy would be to loosen scientific standards for establishing the efficacy of drugs,” the report said.

•The agency caved in to immense pressure — Aside from a lack of reviewers to verify new drugs that are coming in, the FDA knows that drug trials can take years to complete. To provide a solution to the growing need for AIDS drugs, the agency created an “accelerated pathway” in 1992. This allowed manufacturers to provide preliminary evidence that their AIDS drugs were effective.

•Companies were allowed to use “surrogates” to track patient outcomes — Through the new guidelines set by the FDA, manufacturers only needed to provide laboratory tests, or imaging studies like CT scans. These evidence “don’t themselves track quality or quantity of life, but are hypothesized to be reasonably likely to predict a so-called ‘clinical benefit.’”

•Relying on surrogate outcomes allowed companies to get approval — Drugs were fast-tracked despite having shorter and cheaper studies. The expectation is that the companies would provide more substantive evidence of the drugs’ effectiveness after they were allowed to be sold on the market. However, not only do surrogates fail to correlate whether the drug truly improves a patient’s quality of life, but they also don’t reflect if a drug is causing harm.

•AZT (zidovudine) is one example of how surrogate outcomes are unreliable — When it received approval in 1987, this AIDS drug was expected to be a “raging success,” according to results that measured T-cells — these are disease-fighting cells that the virus attacks.

However, less than two years later, researchers who studied 365 patients treated with AZT reported disappointing results;7 not only did the patients’ T-cell levels return to pretreatment levels, but they also became prone to infections, malignancies, and even death.

Fast-Tracked Prescription Drugs Often Come with Alarming Side Effects
The fast-paced approval that allows drugs to become quickly available on the market may appear like a life-saving tactic, but in reality, it’s putting consumers in harm’s way. Every year, an estimated 128,000 people in the U.S. succumb to the side effects of prescription drugs8 — even though they are properly prescribed.

“Drug companies have been allowed to market hundreds of prescription drugs to doctors and sell them to unsuspecting patients despite glaringly inadequate evidence that they offer any benefit and in many cases amid clear signs that they pose a risk of serious, often irreparable harm,” The Lever said.9

The featured report, which is published as a two-part article series, highlights some of the most notable pharmaceutical failures — and their devastating, harmful consequences on people’s lives.

•The dangers of FDA-approved Alzheimer’s drugs — Published in January, the first part of the report tells the story of Genevieve Lane, a senior with advancing Alzheimer’s disease who partook in the study trials for the experimental drug Leqembi. Lane received a placebo during the trial, but then began receiving the actual drug as part of the study’s extension phase — she was dead in six weeks. The cause? Severe cerebral inflammation, likely a result of taking Leqembi.10

•Lane’s case was not an isolated case — Others were also harmed while taking Leqembi. Out of 714 participants during the study’s extension phase, four deaths occurred. During the main trial, two patients were left disabled after using Leqembi, while 22% developed brain hemorrhage or swelling — more than double of those on the placebo (10%).

I’ve also previously written about the dangers of Leqembi — read this article for more information “FDA Gives Accelerated Approval for Risky Alzheimer’s Pill.”

•Alzheimer’s drugs were developed based on the amyloid hypothesis — The theory was that the disease occurs due to a buildup of amyloid beta protein in the brain. But although amyloid deposits are present in the brains of patients with this disease, some people with amyloid never become demented. What’s more, there’s no definitive proof that this protein causes the disease rather than being a byproduct of it.

•In fact, a “landmark” Alzheimer’s study has been recently retracted — An Alzheimer's study that pointed to a specific form of amyloid beta protein as a major driver of memory has been retracted due to manipulated images, as proven by forensic analysis. Read more about it in “Landmark Alzheimer's Study Retracted After Evidence of Data Manipulation.”

•A prescription drug for your bladder is leading to blindness — In the second part of the report, the researchers told the story of how a pharmaceutical drug is causing blindness. Dr. Nieraj Jain noticed the symptoms in his patients — their vision was becoming blurry and it was becoming difficult to see in bright sunlight or at night.

•Jain pinpointed a common denominator against his patients — Elmiron, a drug prescribed for a bladder condition called interstitial cystitis, was affecting his patients’ eyes by causing odd patches of pigment to form on the retina. Jain and his colleagues even published a study on this condition, dubbing it “pigmentary maculopathy.”

•However, it wasn’t the only side effect — The FDA has also received reports of dozens of patient deaths attributed to Elmiron. Some patients were also hospitalized due to severe colitis.

This Searchable Database Allows You to Check if Your Drugs Work
As part of the joint investigative report, The Lever and the McGraw Center created a searchable database11 including all 429 drugs approved by the FDA from January 2013 to December 2022. They also provided evidence from the manufacturers on the drugs’ safety and effectiveness, and gave each drug a rating using the basic criteria:12

•Drugs with 4 points are marked green — All four scientific standards were met. However, this does not guarantee the drug’s effectiveness or safety; it only means the findings are more likely to support the manufacturer’s claims.

•Drugs with 3 points are marked yellow — One of the four minimal standards was not met; it suggests that the submitted evidence was not optimal.

•Drugs with 2 to 0 points are marked red — Two, three, or all of the standards have not been met. This means the evidence submitted is insufficient to verify claims of efficacy and safety.

If you are taking any pharmaceutical drug or have been prescribed one in the last few years, I recommend checking the database to see how it stacks up — and what the supporting research says about its effectiveness and safety.

Get Smarter with Every Prescription
Fast-tracked drug approvals are now rampant within the FDA, which means you must be more critical whenever you’ve been prescribed certain medications in order to make smart health decisions that protect you from this highly flawed system. These five steps will help you stay in control and avoid becoming a test subject for drugs that were never proven to help anyone.

1.Ask one simple question before starting any new drug — Before you agree to take any medication, ask your physician: “Is this drug proven to help with real-world outcomes, like survival or quality of life — or was it approved based on a lab result or surrogate marker?” If your doctor doesn’t know, that’s your cue to dig deeper. You need to know if the benefit you’re chasing is real — not just a shift in a blood test or a scan.

2.Look up the FDA approval history yourself — Go directly to the FDA’s Drugs database or search for the medication’s approval letter. You’ll often see whether the drug was approved under the Accelerated Approval pathway and what evidence was used. If it’s based only on surrogate endpoints like plaque reduction or tumor shrinkage, and not clinical improvement, that’s a red flag. Don’t assume a drug is effective just because it’s on the shelf.

3.Use the power of timing to your advantage — If a drug is new to market, wait. Most serious adverse effects show up after approval, once thousands of people are using it in the real world. If you’re not in an emergency situation, give it 12 to 24 months to see what post-market data reveals. History shows that many of these drugs never prove themselves once follow-up studies are done — and those studies often show risks that weren’t public before.

4.Limit polypharmacy if you’re over 50 or managing multiple conditions — If you’re someone dealing with multiple prescriptions — especially for chronic or age-related conditions — review every drug you’re on with a focus on whether it’s still necessary. The more medications you take, the higher your risk for interactions, especially when drugs were approved on weak evidence.

Start with the newest medications and work backward. Anything fast-tracked without proven long-term benefits should be first on your review list.

5.Work with a healthcare provider who prioritizes results over protocol — You want someone who thinks critically, not someone who simply follows pharmaceutical guidelines without question.

If your provider is quick to prescribe a brand-new drug that’s all over the news, ask what real outcomes it improves and what they’d recommend if the drug didn’t exist. Their answer will tell you whether they treat patients or promote products. You always deserve someone on your side who puts your outcome above a company's sales pitch.

These steps put the power back in your hands. When you understand how drugs get approved — and how often the process is broken — you stop being a passive recipient and start becoming an informed decision-maker. That’s how you protect your health in today’s system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About FDA Drug Approvals
Q: How many FDA-approved drugs fail to meet basic scientific standards?

A: Nearly 73% of all drugs approved by the FDA between 2013 and 2022 did not meet the agency’s own minimum scientific criteria for proof of effectiveness. Many lacked control groups, replication, blinding, or meaningful clinical endpoints.

Q: What does it mean when a drug is approved using a 'surrogate marker'?

A: A surrogate marker is a lab result or scan — like tumor shrinkage or protein level — that suggests a drug might work. But these markers don’t prove a drug actually improves symptoms, survival, or quality of life.

Q: Are fast-tracked drugs safe and reliable?

A: Not always. Drugs pushed through Accelerated Approval often lack full evidence at launch. In many cases, follow-up studies are delayed or inconclusive. Some of these drugs have been linked to severe side effects, including brain hemorrhage, blindness, and death.

Q: How did the FDA’s drug approval standards become so relaxed?

A: The FDA lowered its scientific standards starting in the AIDS crisis of the 1980s to speed access to experimental drugs. This policy shift, combined with industry pressure and limited oversight, opened the door to widespread approval of under-tested drugs.

Q: What can I do to protect myself from unsafe or ineffective drugs?

A: Start by checking the FDA drug database to see how your medication was approved. Ask your doctor whether the drug improves real-world outcomes — not just lab results. Be cautious with new drugs and regularly review all prescriptions, especially if you're taking several at once. "

🚨 RFK JR Sounds the Alarm on the WHO IHR Amendment's — A “Trojan Horse” is Quietly being Installed to implement Digital Health ID's and a Global Health Database

• he expresses concerns about the proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR) and their potential to "open the door" to "that kind of system of health IDs," suggesting a pathway to broader surveillance and control mechanisms.

• He says the WHO is laying the groundwork for a CENTRALIZED Medical Database for every human being

• He connects the potential for digital health IDs to broader issues of surveillance and industry influence. He Mentions Mass "surveillance" and he refers to "industry influence," implying that these IDs could be part of a larger mass surveillance framework that benefits certain industries while encroaching on individual privacy and freedoms.

• Kennedy's concerns are framed within the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, where he believes critical information and criticisms were suppressed. He suggests that the amendments could perpetuate similar dynamics, potentially using digital health IDs as a tool for narrative management and censorship, as seen during the pandemic.

- His overall stance is that such measures, including digital health IDs, could jeopardize civil liberties and national sovereignty. He argues that the U.S. should not sign over authority that could lead to lockdowns and other public health measures without thorough consideration, especially when these measures might invite a system that undermines individual rights.

What’s next?

- Proposal and Adoption Process: The amendments were proposed and negotiated through the World Health Organization (WHO) processes, in an agreement by the World Health Assembly in May 2024 [World Health Assembly, 2024]. However, the implementation of these amendments is not automatic and requires further steps.

- Opt-Out Period: There is a specific window for member states to opt out of these amendments. The U.S. and other countries have until NEXT WEEK, to formally reject the amendments.

This opt-out period is crucial because it allows countries to decide whether to be bound by the new regulations.

WOW: RFK Jr. says the WHO treaty would pave the way for MASS censorship through “risk communications” and “unified public messaging.”

This is dangerous....and Secretary Kennedy sees exactly where it leads.

“To make matters worse, the new regulations employ extremely broad language that gives the W.H.O. unprecedented power.”

“They require countries to establish systems of ‘risk communications’, so that the W.H.O. can implement unified public messaging globally.”

That’s not public health. That’s global narrative control.

“That opens the door to the kind of narrative management and propaganda and censorship that we saw during the Covid pandemic.”

“We don’t want to see that kind of system institutionalized even further.”

And it gets even worse:

“The agreement also contains provisions about global systems of health IDs, vaccine passports and a centralized medical database. It lays the groundwork for global medical surveillance of every human being.”

The warning signs are there. RFK Jr. is sounding the alarm.

On July 10th, the FDA approved a new Moderna Covid shot for children 6 months to 11 years old

Dr. Robert Malone just revealed HHS officials went behind RFK Jr.’s back while on vacation to approve the Moderna shots.

RFK Jr. received no briefing and gave no sign-off on the decision.

Heather Flick Melanson (Chief of Staff) and Hannah Anderson (Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy) were FIRED!

These vaccines are now subject of having the approval revoked…

I knew it… something was not right.

Moderna Spikevax-FDA Post Mortem

Next stop, CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP)

Robert W Malone MD, MS

< snip >

Who knew, What and When, and were there larger strategic and tactical considerations
I have limited visibility into these questions. The unfortunate facts are that this decision about FDA/CBER Spikevax authorization “for children aged 6 months through 11 years who are at increased risk for severe COVID-19 disease” was made public by Moderna when both the Secretary of HHS (JFKjr) and his trusted deputy Chief of Staff Stefanie Spears were on vacation. And Moderna certainly made hay while the sun was shining on them.

Neither Sec HHS nor his deputy Chief of Staff (dCOS) were briefed or read in on this decision. Did the FDA Commissioner know? Did (ex) HHS Chief of Staff Heather Flick know? Did POTUS or his COS know? I do not know the answers to these questions. What I do know is that shortly after the HHS Secretary and his dCOS returned from vacation, a major reorganization of HHS leadership occurred. And that POTUS and his COS were briefed on this decision. There is now a new HHS Chief of Staff. The dCOS for policy was walked off the premises and was so upset that she crashed her car into the Secretary’s government-provided vehicle. And I hear drumbeats in the distance signaling that the natives believe additional organizational changes will be forthcoming.

For those, including myself, who insisted that there be consequences for failing to brief the chain of command regarding this disappointing critical decision by the FDA/CBER director, there is solace in knowing that there were prompt consequences. Whether you agree or disagree with the decision, I hope that all can understand that the federal bureaucracy must recognize that there will be consequences for failing to brief their command chain on politically sensitive decisions. A short, sharp shock was precisely what the doctor recommended.

Regarding Strategy and Tactics

The narrative on MAHA Twitter after the FDA approved Moderna’s SPIKEVAX vaccine for high-risk children is that this was a betrayal by Secretary Kennedy. But this is the OPPOSITE of what transpired. The Secretary was on vacation and not even briefed on the decision. It was a working vacation, and I have personal confirmation that he took many calls, briefings, and was constantly managing strategic and tactical decisions during his much-needed and well-earned vacation. He (and his beloved wife) have not had a vacation since launching his Presidential campaign.

The reality is that CBER Director Vinay Prasad overruled the FDA regulators who had recommended that all three COVID vaccines currently under the standing EUA be approved for all age groups, including healthy children. Which begs the question, why do we still have an Emergency Use Authorization for these products when there is clearly no medical emergency?

Prasad’s justification for this denial should be reassuring to the entire medical freedom movement. He said in his justification letter:

Is there substantial certainty of a net clinical benefit to vaccinating healthy children with this mRNA vaccine? The Office of Communication, Outreach and Development (OCD) within the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER) answer is, at the present time, with best available information, no.

Moderna has never shown a reduction in severe COVID-19, hospitalization, ICU stays or death in a randomized study in children.

Moderna has not shown that COVID-19 vaccination reduces long COVID or transmission in any setting at any age with high-quality data. Neither has the applicant nor a third party shown fewer missed days of school with high-quality data.

Vaccinating these individuals (healthy kids with natural immunity) carries massive uncertainty as to whether benefits outweigh risks.

Although COVID-19 vaccines have been given to billions of individuals and the harms have been studied in depth, no one knows if these products have harms that only materialize 10 or 20 years later, as such is a necessary limit of time. It is ignorant to claim that unknown long-term risks are not possible.

Antibodies are not gold standard science, and one cannot be certain of net clinical benefit merely because antibodies are increased. Vaccine doses can increase antibodies, but fail to further improve clinical outcomes.

Randomized trials measuring clinical outcomes will be required to approve these products for healthy individuals.

< much more at link >

FDA is ultimately accountable to the American people, and Americans have overwhelmingly stated that they feel the evidence to vaccinate a healthy child with a COVID-19 mRNA product is not enough to compel them to act. CBER OCD, after careful examination of the scientific evidence, agrees with the vast majority of Americans.

FDA Approved Moderna COVID Shot For Kids Behind Kennedy's Back - Two HHS Aides Fired

by Tyler Durden
Monday, Jul 21, 2025 - 10:35 PM
Authored by Jon Fleetwood via JonFleetwood.com,

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) quietly granted full approval to Moderna’s mRNA COVID-19 injection for children while Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was on vacation - and without his knowledge or consent.

https://assets.zerohedge.com/s3fs-public/inline-images/https-3A-2F-2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com-2Fpublic-2Fimages-2Ff7a7cb8e-912a-4a81-8cbd-94d926a1a85b_1456x1048.jpeg_80.jpg?itok=7LMpNcY5

As head of the department overseeing the FDA, Kennedy should have been directly informed of any decision involving pediatric mRNA shots—especially one as politically and medically sensitive as full approval for children as young as six months.

On July 10, Moderna, Inc. announced the FDA approved the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Spikevax®, the Company’s COVID shot, in “children 6 months through 11 years of age who are at increased risk for COVID-19 disease.”

The approval was made despite Moderna’s own scientists’ admission that there are “unacceptable toxicity” levels in mRNA vaccines, and that “lipid nanoparticle structural components, production methods, route of administration and proteins produced from complexed mRNAs all present toxicity concerns.”

It was also made without Secretary Kennedy’s knowledge.

According to multiple sources, neither Kennedy nor his Deputy Chief of Staff Stefanie Spears were briefed or consulted ahead of the decision, raising alarm over internal operations at one of the nation’s most powerful health agencies.

Only July 16, White House correspondent and media host Emerald Robinson reported on Twitter/X that FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary “did not inform @RobertKennedyJr (who was on vacation) or his office that FDA was going to approve the mRNA shots for children,” citing sources familiar with the matter.

On July 17, CNN reported that Secretary Kennedy had fired two of his top aides “in an abrupt shakeup of the leadership at the nation’s sprawling health department,” also citing unnamed sources.

“Kennedy’s chief of staff, Heather Flick Melanson, and deputy chief of staff for policy Hannah Anderson left HHS after only a handful of months on the job, following internal clashes that culminated in both of their removals this week,” the report explained.

The CNN article didn’t connect the firings to the FDA’s decision to approve Moderna’s jab for kids.

However, the MAHA PAC (Make America Healthy Again Political Action Committee)—a pro-Trump super PAC founded by RFK Jr.’s former staff to promote his health-focused agenda—corroborated Robinson’s account and connected the firings to the FDA’s Moderna decision.

On July 20, MAHA PAC cited Dr. Robert Malone—now serving on the newly restructured ACIP vaccine panel—as confirming that neither Kennedy nor Spears were informed of the FDA’s decision regarding Moderna and that a major HHS leadership purge unfolded upon their return.

“The unfortunate facts are that this decision… was made public when both the Secretary of HHS and his trusted deputy Chief of Staff Stefanie Spears were on vacation,” said Dr. Malone, citing insider knowledge. “Neither Sec. HHS nor his deputy Chief of Staff (dCOS) were briefed or read in on this decision.”

The move apparently set off a chain reaction.

According to Malone, shortly after Kennedy and Spears returned, “a major reorganization of HHS leadership occurred.”

Anderson was “walked off the premises and was so upset that she crashed her car into the Secretary’s government-provided vehicle.”

Melanson, a veteran of the Trump-era HHS, claimed she resigned voluntarily.

CNN sources say otherwise, alleging she was fired after Kennedy lost confidence in her leadership following the dismissal of Anderson.

A spokesperson for HHS said that Matt Buckham, the department’s White House liaison, will serve as acting Chief of Staff.

The FDA’s end-run around Kennedy not only signals potential deeper insubordination within HHS, but also highlights a promising shift under his leadership—one where incompetence, secrecy, and disloyalty are no longer tolerated, and where restoring integrity, transparency, and public trust could be the new standard.

🚨🚨🚨HHS Finds Systemic Disregard for Sanctity of Life in Organ Transplant System

This is a press release from HHS, dated July 21, 2025

Secretary Kennedy Threatens Closure of Deficient Organ Procurement Organization

WASHINGTON—July 21, 2025— The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under the leadership of Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. today announced a major initiative to begin reforming the organ transplant system following an investigation by its Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) that revealed disturbing practices by a major organ procurement organization.

“Our findings show that hospitals allowed the organ procurement process to begin when patients showed signs of life, and this is horrifying,” Secretary Kennedy said.

“The organ procurement organizations that coordinate access to transplants will be held accountable. The entire system must be fixed to ensure that every potential donor’s life is treated with the sanctity it deserves.”

HRSA directed the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) to reopen a disturbing case involving potentially preventable harm to a neurologically injured patient by the federally-funded organ procurement organization (OPO) serving Kentucky, southwest Ohio, and part of West Virginia. Under the Biden administration, the OPTN’s Membership and Professional Standards Committee closed the same case without action.

Under Secretary Kennedy’s leadership, HRSA demanded a thorough, independent review of the OPO’s conduct and the treatment of vulnerable patients under its care. HRSA’s independent investigation revealed clear negligence after the previous OPTN Board of Directors claimed to find no major concerns in their internal review.

HRSA examined 351 cases where organ donation was authorized, but ultimately not completed. It found:

103 cases (29.3%) showed concerning features, including 73 patients with neurological signs incompatible with organ donation.

At least 28 patients may not have been deceased at the time organ procurement was initiated—raising serious ethical and legal questions.

Evidence pointed to poor neurologic assessments, lack of coordination with medical teams, questionable consent practices, and misclassification of causes of death, particularly in overdose cases.

Vulnerabilities were highest in smaller and rural hospitals, indicating systemic gaps in oversight and accountability. In response to these findings, HRSA has mandated strict corrective actions for the OPO, and system-level changes to safeguard potential organ donors nationally. The OPO must conduct a full root cause analysis of its failure to follow internal protocols—including noncompliance with the five-minute observation rule after the patient’s death—and develop clear, enforceable policies to define donor eligibility criteria. Additionally, it must adopt a formal procedure allowing any staff member to halt a donation process if patient safety concerns arise.

Secretary Kennedy will decertify the OPO if it fails to comply with these corrective action requirements [PDF].

HRSA also took action to make sure that patients across the country will be safer when donating organs by directing the OPTN to improve safeguards and monitoring at the national level. Under HRSA’s directive, data about any safety-related stoppages of organ donation called for by families, hospitals, or OPO staff must be reported to regulators, and the OPTN must update policies to strengthen organ procurement safety and provide accurate, complete information about the donation process to families and hospitals.

These findings from HHS confirm what the Trump administration has long warned: entrenched bureaucracies, outdated systems, and reckless disregard for human life have failed to protect our most vulnerable citizens. Under Secretary Kennedy’s leadership, HHS is restoring integrity and transparency to organ procurement and transplant policy by putting patients’ lives first. These reforms are essential to restoring trust, ensuring informed consent, and protecting the rights and dignity of prospective donors and their families.

HHS recognizes House Committee on Energy and Commerce Chairman Brett Guthrie’s (KY-02) bipartisan work to improve the organ transplant system and looks forward to working with him and other issue-area champions in Congress to deliver reforms.

Vaccine Liability is On the Table
Secretary Kennedy Makes a Stunning Announcement

"The national conversation on vaccine injury and accountability has returned—this time from within the halls of power. On July 28, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued a blistering rebuke of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), calling it a morass of inefficiency, favoritism, and outright corruption. His statement follows decades of criticism from researchers, patient advocates, and injured families who have watched the program drift further from its original mission: to compensate those injured by vaccines swiftly and fairly, in exchange for protecting manufacturers from lawsuits.

But now, the call is coming from inside the building—and so are the corroborating accounts. I speak from personal experience.

A System Designed to Protect Industry, Not People
Established in 1986 under the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act, the VICP was sold to the public as a compromise. Vaccine makers would be shielded from product liability lawsuits, but a special court would hear injury claims and disburse funds from a trust financed by a 75-cent surcharge on every dose. The result was a legal anomaly: a taxpayer-funded compensation system adjudicated by government attorneys and so-called Special Masters, immune from civil discovery, unbound by the rules of evidence, and utterly inaccessible to traditional tort remedies.

It is, in every material sense, a system rigged against the injured.

More than 12,000 petitioners have received compensation totaling over $5.4 billion, but this figure hides more than it reveals. The average payout may hover around $450,000, but cases can drag on for years. Worse, over half of all claims are denied—often without genuine examination of mechanistic plausibility or patient history.

And contrary to public assumption, most of these awards are not for injured children, but for adults—many of them harmed by influenza vaccines and other products routinely administered to working-age populations. This pattern directly undercuts the common refrain that VICP is merely a safeguard for pediatric vaccination. It is not. It is a backdoor bailout system for manufacturers—deliberately kept quiet, procedurally opaque, and inaccessible to public scrutiny.

My Departure: Bribery, Aluminum, and the End of Trust
I left my role in the VICP process after a Special Master attempted to bribe me.

During sworn expert work on behalf of a petitioner, I had prepared testimony linking aluminum adjuvants to autoimmune conditions via well-established immunological pathways, including molecular mimicry, the use of aluminum hydroxide to induce autoimmunity reliability and reproducibility in animals, and chronic inflammatory cascades. The science is robust—rooted in animal models, systems biology, and translational studies.

Instead of rebutting the data, the Special Master took another path: off the record and improper. The plaintiff was informed that the VICP had already determined that aluminum was not a problem (a violation of the rule of not citing precedent), and they were told —explicitly—that unless I softened or removed my statements on aluminum's causal role in the development of post-vaccination autoimmune disease, the Special Master was not likely to want to compensate me for further testimony. It was implied that my future participation in the program and reputation within the Court system would be accommodated.

My response was to put the attempted bribe on the record in my next expert statement, withdraw all of my invoices in protest, and to depart the program.

That recording is in the possession of the plaintiff, multiple attorneys and myself. Its contents will, when considered by the AG office, obliterate any illusion that the VICP operates under the rules of ethics or law. The incident does not stand alone. It is the tip of a very large iceberg—one built on procedural fraud, scientific suppression, and judicial strong-arming.

Secretary Kennedy: Course Correction from Within
RFK Jr. made clear that reform will not be cosmetic. He criticized the VICP for prioritizing the solvency of the HHS Trust Fund over the duty to compensate victims, and called out the agency for denying plaintiffs access to the CDC’s Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD)—the most robust adverse event surveillance system in existence.

In his words, There is no discovery, and the rules of evidence do not apply... Special Masters dismiss over half of the cases... the government lawyers do not allow children attorneys access to the Vaccine Safety Datalink.

Whether one agrees with Kennedy politically is irrelevant. The rot he describes is not ideological. It is institutional. The structural incentives are clear: HHS defends HHS. DOJ attorneys defend HHS. Special Masters are selected and paid under HHS. The CDC owns the VSD but hides its data from plaintiffs. The DOJ has an incentive to dismiss claims to protect the trust fund balance. This is not a court—it is a closed circuit.

Reader Reactions: The Three Americas
In response to the Seeking Alpha article covering RFK Jr.'s announcement, readers offered unfiltered insight into public sentiment. Three distinct worldviews emerged.

First were the Realists, who support vaccines generally but are appalled by the injustice baked into the VICP. As one commenter put it, Sunshine is a good disinfectant. Another added, If it is a societal good to mandate immunizations and shield companies from liability, then we should be willing to compensate those with adverse reactions.

Second came the Defenders of the Shield, who insisted that removing liability would collapse vaccine innovation. One commenter claimed, There would be no vaccines in the US once that happened, ignoring the fact that other nations without liability shields still fund, develop, and manufacture vaccines. Others leaned on the misleading statistic that adverse effects are rare—failing to mention that injuries are underreported, dismissed without evidence review, and often not tracked in any meaningful long-term way.

Third came the Disillusioned, who questioned the ethics of an industry so entwined with the state that corruption is normalized. Some accused RFK Jr. of fronting for trial lawyers. Others saw the pandemic response itself as evidence that vaccine policy is less about science and more about political obedience.

Whether extreme or reasoned, these perspectives highlight a growing truth: the VICP no longer commands public trust.

Legal Immunity is the Enemy of Innovation
The claim that loss of immunity will halt vaccine development is not only false—it is dangerously backward. In fact:

Loss of immunity will force vaccine makers to innovate.

Without accountability, companies have no incentive to improve adjuvants, reduce contamination, study long-term risks, or design surveillance systems that detect harm in real time. The current regime has enabled stagnation. Nearly all pediatric vaccines on the schedule are based on decades-old platforms. The most rapid innovation—mRNA—was released under EUA without liability and now shows signals of myocarditis, menstrual irregularities, and other systemic effects the courts may never adjudicate.

In no other industry is this tolerated. Heart valve makers, prosthetics manufacturers, and psychiatric drug developers all face liability. They still operate. They still innovate. They improve because they must.

Shielding vaccines from legal challenge has not increased safety—it has buried it.

Reform or Repeal: What Comes Next?
RFK Jr.'s proposals may be only the beginning. True reform requires:

Open public access to the Vaccine Safety Datalink

A neutral body—independent from HHS—to adjudicate claims

The restoration of civil discovery and standard evidentiary procedure

Time limits on case resolution

Repeal of liability protections for any vaccine added under emergency use or without full pre-licensure safety trials

The American public has paid the price for blind trust in captured systems. The VICP is not broken because of incompetence—it was designed to serve institutional solvency over justice. That design must be reversed.

Conclusion: The Shield is Cracking
For decades, vaccine liability has been off-limits, protected by layers of legal abstraction and media silence. Now, with a reformer at the helm of HHS and credible insider testimony—mine included—exposing bribery within the program itself, the silence is breaking.

The VICP cannot be patched. It must be reimagined—or replaced entirely. The goal is not to dismantle public health. It is to restore it through accountability, transparency, and respect for those who paid the price in silence.

That silence ends now. Vaccine liability is back on the table.

Full Kennedy Post (on X):

“The 1986 Vaccine Act gave vaccine makers immunity against lawsuits by children who suffer vaccine injuries. The statute, and numerous subsequent court decisions, recognized that vaccines, like all medicines, are, in the words of the American Academy of Pediatrics case, “unavoidably unsafe,” and that a percentage of vaccinated children will suffer injuries or death. Congress, therefore, simultaneously created the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP), which obliged HHS to compensate injured children. In the words of then Labor and Public Welfare Committee Chairman Senator Edward Kennedy, “when ... children are the victims of an appropriate and rational national policy, a compassionate [g]overnment will assist them in their hour of need.”

Under the VICP, vaccine victims can petition for compensation to the so-called “Vaccine Court,” which pays out awards from a trust fund endowed by a 75-cent surcharge on every vaccine. Congress intended that injured children be compensated “quickly and fairly” for injuries, “either presumed or proven to be causally connected to vaccines,” with doubts about causation resolved in favor of the victim.

To date, the Vaccine Court has paid out $5.4 billion to 12,000 petitioners. But the VICP no longer functions to achieve its Congressional intent. Instead, the VICP has devolved into a morass of inefficiency, favoritism, and outright corruption as government lawyers and the Special Masters who serve as Vaccine Court judges prioritize the solvency of the HHS Trust Fund, over their duty to compensate victims.

The structure itself hobbles claimants. The defendant is HHS, not the vaccine makers; and claimants are therefore facing the monumental power and bottomless pockets of the U.S. government represented by the Department of Justice. Furthermore, most of the Special Masters come from government, legal, or political posts, and typically display an extreme bias that favors the government side. There is no discovery, and the rules of evidence do not apply. The government lawyers do not allow children’s attorneys access to the Vaccine Safety Datalink, a taxpayer-funded CDC surveillance system that houses the best data on vaccine injuries. Attorney compensation is in the hands of notoriously biased Special Masters and often hostile government attorneys, who can leverage this power to turn petitioner attorneys against their clients' interests.

The VICP routinely dismisses meritorious cases outright or drags them out for years. Instead of “quickly and fairly” awarding compensation, Special Masters dismiss over half of the cases. Most of those that proceed typically take 5+ years to resolve, with many languishing for more than 10 years as parents struggle to care for children suffering with often extreme disabilities. Petitioners’ attorneys complain that the Special Masters make punitive downward adjustments to attorneys’ fees and medical expert fees to punish effective advocacy. Expert witnesses for injured children complain that they suffer intimidation and even threats that they will lose professional status or NIH funding if they testify for injured children. The government pays its own medical expert witnesses promptly while simultaneously slow-walking payments for petitioners’ experts—sometimes for years.

The VICP is broken, and I intend to fix it. I will not allow the VICP to continue to ignore its mandate and fail its mission of quickly and fairly compensating vaccine-injured individuals.

I am grateful to be working with @AGPamBondi and HHS staff to fix the VISP.

Together, we will steer the Vaccine Court back to its original Congressional intent.”

‘Deceitful Propaganda Stunt’: RFK Jr. Breaks Down Danish Study on Autism and Aluminum in Vaccines
by TrialSite News
August 4, 2025
By Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/rfk-jr-breaks-down-danish-study-autism-aluminum-vaccines/?utm_source=cc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=defender&utm_id=20250804

"From excluding high-risk children to ignoring the authors’ financial conflicts of interest, U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. laid out the flaws in a study hailed by the media as proof of aluminum’s safety. A closer look “reveals a study so deeply flawed it functions not as science but as a deceitful propaganda stunt by the pharmaceutical industry,” Kennedy said.

On July 15, an intensely ballyhooed study by Andersson et al., published in Annals of Internal Medicine — a journal of the American College of Physicians, claims to find no association between aluminum-adjuvanted vaccines and chronic childhood disorders in Denmark.

The slavish, pharma-funded mainstream media, ever eager to defend industry orthodoxies, have triumphantly hailed this study as proof of aluminum’s safety without even a cursory examination of the study’s fatal deficiencies or the financial conflicts of its authors.

But a closer look reveals a study so deeply flawed it functions not as science but as a deceitful propaganda stunt by the pharmaceutical industry.

The architects of this study meticulously designed it not to find harm. From the outset, Andersson et al. excluded the very children most likely to reveal injuries associated with high exposures to aluminum adjuvants in childhood vaccines.

The exclusion included all children who died before age two, those diagnosed early with respiratory conditions, and an astonishing 34,547 children — 2.8% of the study population — whose vaccination records showed the highest aluminum exposure levels.

These choices suggest an intention to exclude the children at highest risk of harm. The authors, without explanation, deemed these high exposures “implausible,” even though those implausibly high exposures are routine for American children who follow the recommended immunization schedule.

At the very least, the study findings therefore cannot be generalized to children in the U.S. By systematically stripping the dataset of high-risk individuals, the researchers leave behind a survivor cohort to analyze. The name for this logical fallacy is “healthy subject bias.”

Furthermore, the authors inappropriately treated general practitioner visits before age two as a confounder, without assessing whether these general practitioner visits reflected early aluminum-related illness or were predictive of later diagnoses.

This introduced “collider bias” — a distortion that can suppress real associations even to the extent of making aluminum appear protective. It’s like studying whether smoking causes lung cancer while adjusting for coughing or for yellowed fingers — symptoms associated with smoking.

These sleights of hand magnify the potential for allowing the authors to reach their absurd suggestion that higher aluminum exposure is somehow protective against asthma, allergies, and neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism.

These findings clash with mountains of contrary literature documenting the neurotoxicity of aluminum and its association with autoimmune and allergic diseases (Daley, et al. 2023). If the medical establishment truly believed these data, they would be recommending aluminum injections to children as a prophylaxis against neurological and autoimmune diseases.

Andersson and his team initially had a zero-exposure cohort within the study group. But instead of evaluating this non-vaccination group separately and treating these children as the control, they lumped these kids into the least-exposed cohort, diluting any signal of harm.

More broadly, their analysis assumed a linear dose-response, ignoring evidence from Crépeaux et al. (2017) demonstrating that low doses of aluminum can produce non-linear neurotoxic effects in animal models.

While adjusting for birth year can be appropriate in some study designs to account for secular trends, it is not a neutral act in this case. Aluminum exposure from vaccines increased over time, as did rates of chronic childhood disorders. Yet the authors failed to explore whether this correlation might reflect a causal relationship. They did not test this hypothesis but conveniently avoided doing so through this statistical artifice.

Furthermore, the authors almost exclusively relied on diagnoses from hospital inpatient registers. This gimmick allowed the authors to exclude the vast majority of affected children whose autism and food allergies would most likely be diagnosed and managed outside of hospital settings. This potentially biases the data toward undercounting true cases, particularly among children with milder presentations or less frequent hospital contact.

There were additional problems with this data source. A 2017 analysis by Holt et al. identified substantial misclassification in the Danish National Health Service Registry — the same source used by Andersson et al. to assess vaccine exposure — finding that children’s medical records often documented vaccinations that were absent from the registry.

This casts further doubt on the accuracy of exposure classification in the study. In other words, it’s highly likely that many of the children that the authors classified as not receiving aluminum-containing vaccines actually did.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) routine childhood vaccine schedule is also considerably more aggressive than Denmark’s. For example, while Denmark recommends the aluminum-containing hepatitis B (Hep B) vaccine only for infants deemed at risk, the CDC recommends a three-dose series for all newborns starting on the first day of life.

Andersson et al. also neglect to consider susceptible subpopulations of children based on known genetic risk factors, such as mitochondrial dysfunction or environmental co-exposures, such as the synergistic toxicity of mercury and aluminum. This suite of deceptive devices and strategic exclusions seems calculated as an additional flimflam for deliberately excluding or diluting out the most vulnerable children.

Despite all the deceptive devices the authors used to conceal the signals of harm, Andersson et al.’s own supplementary data are a devastating indictment of aluminum-containing vaccines. These data, which they were forced to publish because of public criticism of their analysis, directly contradict the study’s conclusions.

The data show a statistically significant 67% increased risk of Asperger’s syndrome per 1 mg increase in aluminum exposure among children born between 2007 and 2018.

Compared to the moderate exposure group, for every 10,000 children in the highest aluminum exposure cohort, there were 9.7 more cases of neurodevelopmental disorder, 4.5 more cases of autistic disorder, and 8.7 more cases of the broader category of autism spectrum disorder. Yet the authors gloss over these harms to children by claiming they “did not find evidence” for an increased risk.

To reassure readers that infants’ vaccine aluminum exposure is “well below” an established “minimal risk level,” Andersson et al. cite Mitkus et al. (2011). But that U.S. Food and Drug Administration analysis was based on ingested soluble aluminum in adult rodents, making its findings irrelevant to injected particulate aluminum in human infants. To cite this study as proof of safety is scientifically indefensible.

Three of the study’s authors are affiliated with Denmark’s Statens Serum Institut (SSI), a government-owned vaccine company that develops a number of aluminum-containing vaccines. SSI also procures and supplies vaccines for the Danish national vaccination program — a clear institutional conflict given its role in supporting vaccine manufacturing and promoting vaccine uptake.

Yet two of the three authors nevertheless declared no conflicts of interest. The senior author, Anders Hviid, reported funding from sources including the Novo Nordisk Foundation, which is directly linked to the pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk and maintains a substantial investment footprint in the industry.

Such affiliations call into question the study’s independence and underscore the need for raising international standards of gold standard science outlined in the Trump administration’s recent executive order requiring transparency, reproducibility and data sharing. These are standards that will determine with whom the U.S. will collaborate or do business going forward.

The study, in fact, offers the opposite of transparency. For example, there is no table showing how many of the children in each aluminum exposure cohort were diagnosed with each outcome. Consequently, there is no way to independently evaluate the calculations made, leaving readers to place faith in the authors’ opaque modeling decisions at the expense of scientific reproducibility.

Finally, the Annals of Internal Medicine failed to share raw data that is essential for transparency and reproducibility. The disclosures on the Andersson study say “owing to data privacy regulations in Denmark, the raw data cannot be shared.”

Public health policy should not rest on non-reproducible observational studies that are not merely inconclusive but appear to be intentionally designed to find no association between vaccines and health harms.

If the authors are truly committed to science, they should ask the Danish government to waive the requirements of the law and allow full access to their raw data for scientists across the world to verify their findings.

This study does not just suffer from mere methodological limitations. Its design flaws are defining. The only thing this study proves is the thorough corruption of the scientific journals that publish such garbage-in, garbage-out exercises in statistical manipulation.

The Annals of Internal Medicine should immediately retract this badly flawed study.

For years, American parents have been calling for rigorous, transparent and independently conducted science comparing the long-term health outcomes of children vaccinated according to the CDC schedule with those of completely unvaccinated children.

Yet studies like Andersson et al. showed they had the data to make this comparison between vaccinated and unvaccinated children, but instead excluded and lumped data that made their insights opaque. These authors squandered an important opportunity to restore trust by animating an international scientific process to develop safer vaccines.

By excluding unvaccinated children from meaningful analysis, obscuring raw data and relying on hidden statistical assumptions, this study exemplifies the kind of institutional obfuscation that continues to erode public trust.

What’s needed is not more statistical modeling designed to bury signals of harm, but independent research grounded in full transparency, methodological integrity and the courage to confront inconvenient truths.

“This Is a Bombshell”: Dr. Ryan Cole Predicts What’s Coming Next as RFK Jr. Defunds mRNA Vaccines

Kennedy’s defunding of mRNA vaccine technology “is a bombshell,” pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole told Steve Bannon.

Why?

Because “when the money isn’t there, these are going to FIZZLE.”

“This is a bombshell."

“The repercussions,” he says, “are going to be felt worldwide.”

Ryan Cole M.D.: “It’s Not A Ban On mRNA, But It’s A Wind Down Of The Government Investing Through BARDA In These Technologies”

BARDA -- Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority

Full Bannons War Room video:
https://rumble.com/v6x6xzu-cole.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_m

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. dropped a mega bombshell on Tuesday when he announced that BARDA will be CANCELING 22 mRNA vaccine development contracts, saving taxpayers about $500 million in the process.

BARDA and mRNA Vaccines Announcement

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FMLhcACHF_g

This move delivered a major blow to the biomedical industrial complex, which was hoping to make an mRNA vaccine for just about every disease imaginable.

Kennedy also gave legitimacy to what was deemed a “conspiracy theory” for the longest time.

He suggested the COVID-19 shots, marketed as “safe and effective,” could have CAUSED the virus to mutate more quickly and EXTENDED the pandemic altogether.

He explained:

“The [mRNA] vaccine [platform] paradoxically encourages new mutations and can actually prolong pandemics. As the virus constantly mutates to escape the protective effects of the vaccine, millions of people, maybe even you or someone you know, caught the Omicron variant despite being vaccinated. That’s because a single mutation can make mRNA vaccines ineffective.”

The only good thing I can say about this article/video is that Colbert has been cancelled. He will have another 10 months on the air, and he will not be replaced.

Stephen Colbert Hits RFK Jr. with ‘Measured’ Response on Vaccine Funding Cut: ‘F*ck You, You Roid-Addled Nepo Carnie!’

https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/QjqaWIfh.mp4

Stephen Colbert offered a finger and some salty language in response to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cutting $500 million in vaccine contracts.

On Thursday’s The Late Show, Colbert railed against a number of officials from President Donald Trump’s administration, but took particular issue with Kennedy, who announced this week that 22 projects related to developing vaccines using mRNA technology to fight respiratory viruses will be halted.

“To replace the troubled mRNA programs, we’re prioritizing the development of safer, broader vaccine strategies, like whole-virus vaccines and novel platforms that don’t collapse when viruses mutate,” Kennedy said.

Colbert noted on Wednesday that his show is coming to a close soon and he wanted to provide a “measured, non-partisan” response to Kennedy.

“**** you, you roid-addled nepo carnie!” Colbert then said, throwing his middle finger up at the camera, the crowd bursting into cheers.

The comedian compared halting the projects to not using a GPS.

“Bobby Jr. is nixing 22 projects that use mRNA technology. But that’s the latest vaccine technology. That’s like saying, kids, I’m turning off the GPS. We’re going to make our way to Six Flags by using the stars,” he said.

Colbert has used his show as a platform to promote vaccines in the past, getting pushback from vaccine critics by putting on a song and dance number to promote the COVID-19 vaccine in 2021.

Colbert tore into Kennedy with more personal insults on his show, warning him he’s going to “kill” people with his decision.

“**** you, you roadkill munching, red-eyed, human Slim Jim. You’re going to kill people. Why would you say that mRNA vaccines don’t perform well against upper respiratory infections? The National Institutes of Health said they prevented an estimated 14.4 million deaths. Why on Earth is RFK Jr. so anxious to fill our streets with dead bodies?” he said.

Senior HHS Advisor Dr. Steven Hatfill just said mRNA shots induce “BIOCHEMICAL HAVOC.”

He’s likely referring to the new study that found mRNA shots induce severe, long-lasting genetic disruption linked to cancer and chronic disease.

Using high-resolution RNA sequencing on blood samples, they discovered that COVID-19 “vaccines” SEVERELY disrupt expression of THOUSANDS of genes—triggering mitochondrial failure, immune reprogramming, and oncogenic activation that can persist for MONTHS to YEARS post-injection.

Differential gene expression analysis compared mRNA-injured patients (cancer, adverse events) to 803 healthy controls — revealing widespread transcriptomic CHAOS.

AAP, AMA Booted From CDC Vaccine Advisory Working Groups
by Brenda Baletti, Ph.D.
August 8, 2025
https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/aap-ama-booted-cdc-vaccine-advisory-working-groups/?utm_source=cc&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=defender&utm_id=20250808s#btn-share-1

(Hyperlinks in the article not embedded here.)

"The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the American Medical Association (AMA) and six other major medical associations will no longer participate in advising the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on vaccine policy, Bloomberg reported.

The associations said they were informed via email last week that their vaccine experts were being disinvited from the workgroups that report to the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) decides which vaccines should be recommended to the public, who should take them and how often. Its recommendations help determine which vaccines will be covered by the CDC’s Vaccines for Children Program and insurers, and will be mandated by states for daycare and school attendance.

The medical association members will no longer be invited to participate in the working groups that review data and form policy recommendations. However, they will be able to participate in the open public meetings, like the rest of the public.

They are being eliminated because they are “special interest groups and therefore are expected to have a ‘bias’ based on their constituency and/or population that they represent,” according to one U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) email reported by The Associated Press.

HHS spokesperson Andrew Nixon confirmed the decision in an email. He said:

“Under the old ACIP, outside pressure to align with vaccine orthodoxy limited asking the hard questions. The old ACIP members were plagued by conflicts of interest, influence, and bias. We are fulfilling our promise to the American people to never again allow those conflicts to taint vaccine recommendations.

“Experts will continue to be included based on relevant experience and expertise, not because of what organization they are with.”

Groups call decision ‘irresponsible, dangerous’ to public health

The organizations responded in a joint statement, claiming the decision is “irresponsible, dangerous to our nation’s health, and will further undermine public and clinician trust in vaccines.” They called on the Trump administration to reconsider the decision.

“We are deeply disappointed and alarmed that our organizations are being characterized as ‘biased’ and therefore barred from reviewing scientific data and informing the development of vaccine recommendations that have long helped ensure our nation’s vaccine program is safe, effective, and free from bias,” they wrote.

In addition to the AAP and the AMA, the statement was signed by the American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Physicians, American Geriatrics Society, American Osteopathic Association, Infectious Diseases Society of America and the National Medical Association.

The decision was the latest attempt by U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to address the problem of industry influence over ACIP.

In June, Kennedy announced that HHS was retiring all 17 members of ACIP to eliminate conflicts of interest. At the time, most members had financial ties to pharmaceutical companies marketing vaccines, or had worked with public health agencies to promote controversial vaccines, including the COVID-19, RSV and HPV shots.

Two days later, Kennedy named eight researchers and physicians to replace approximately half of the members. One nominee declined to participate.

At the first meeting of the new ACIP committee, the members voted to stop recommending flu shots that contain thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative linked to neurodevelopmental disorders. The AAP, which criticized the decision, maintains that thimerosal is “safe.”

The committee also voted to recommend Merck’s new RSV monoclonal antibody shot for newborns.

Every group kicked out of ACIP takes corporate money from Big Pharma

In July, several of the medical associations removed last week from the ACIP working groups sued Kennedy and other public health officials and agencies over the changes to COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women.

The groups’ lead lawyer, Richard Henry Hughes IV, was vice president of public policy at Moderna from 2020-2022, when the vaccine maker developed and marketed the Spikevax COVID-19 vaccine, which has netted the company billions of dollars over the last four years. He also previously worked for Merck.

Last month, the AAP also called for an end to religious and philosophical vaccine exemptions for children attending daycare and school in the U.S.

In an updated policy statement published in Pediatrics, the AAP said universal immunization is necessary to keep children and employees safe. The organization said there is a place for “legitimate” medical exemptions, but nonmedical exemptions — part of the fundamental constitutional right to freedom of religion — are “problematic.”

In addition to working with lobbyists like Hughes, every organization expelled from the ACIP working group is funded by the pharmaceutical industry.

The AAP, the major professional organization representing 67,000 pediatricians in the U.S., has overseen the rising rates of chronic illness and medication of American children over recent decades. It is also a lobbying organization that, over the previous six years, has spent between $748,000 and $1,180,000 annually advocating for its members, according to the government website Open Secrets.

The organization’s funding for that work comes, in part, from annual contributions from corporate sponsors, including vaccine manufacturers Moderna, Merck, Sanofi, Abbott Laboratories, GSK and CSL Seqirus.

The AMA is also funded in part by corporate sponsorships. In the past, it came under fire for taking more than $600,000 from pharmaceutical companies to finance a $1 million campaign to promote ethical guidelines discouraging doctors from accepting expensive gifts from drug companies, The Lancet reported.

AMA funding also comes from the AMA Foundation, which is funded by “Roundtable members” from the pharmaceutical industry. Its largest donor is PhRMA, the primary lobbying organization for the industry — which spent a record $12.88 million lobbying for the industry in the first quarter of 2025.

Other AMA sponsors include Agmen, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Eli Lilly, Genentech, GSK, Merck, Novartis, Pfizer, Sanofi and others.

The National Medical Association takes funding from Eli Lilly, Gilead, Regeneron, Pfizer, Merck, Amgen, Novo Nordisk, Vertex, AstraZeneca and others.

The Infectious Diseases Society of America partners with Abbvie, AstraZeneca, Gilead, GSK, Merck, Moderna, Pfizer, Sanofi and others.

A similar list of Big Pharma companies funds the American Academy of Family Physicians, which also partners with Amazon Pharmacy.

Pharma giants, including Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson, are on the long list of the American College of Physicians’ corporate sponsors, along with Big Food giants Tyson Foods and PepsiCo.

The American Geriatrics Society’s financial disclosure statement shows that it has various corporate sponsors, including Merck and Pfizer.

The American Osteopathic Association also has several corporate sponsors, including Pfizer, Astellas, Merck and Sanofi.

New ACIP committee member Retsef Levi, Ph.D., in a post on X, said that instead of these industry-sponsored organizations, the working groups plan to engage experts from a broader set of disciplines.

The working group participation will now “be based on merit & expertise,” he wrote, “not membership in organizations proven to have COIs [conflicts-of-interest] and radical & narrow view of public health!” "

Dangers of EMFs-- MAHA overlooked this

MAHA overlooked this (so far) - but you don't have to
Email newsletter from: The EMF Guy <np@theemfguy.com>
8/12/25

"Several months ago, the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) report – the one that's supposed to tackle the root causes of the chronic disease epidemic in children - completely fell short when it comes to EMF dangers.

According to this detailed analysis (1) from Children's Health Defense, EMFs got relegated to “one bullet statement on page 44” with basic scientific errors. Meanwhile, they ignored the 2025 WHO study showing “high certainty” that cellphone radiation causes cancer.

Here's what really gets me: EMFs are, according to people who actually studied the issue in depth (2), one of the most pressing health issues of our time.

Yes, microplastics matter. Glyphosate matters. All those other toxins matter too.
But EMFs? They're one of the fastest-growing and most ignored problems we're facing. And most people in the MAHA movement still need to be educated about these dangers.

That's exactly why I'm making this available again.

Remember the 2025 EMF Hazards Summit we ran back in April? The one where over 40,000 people registered, and my inbox got flooded with messages like "This opened my eyes" and "Why isn't this on the news?"

For the first time since April, I'm making the entire summit available again - completely free for 48 hours.

The disturbing truth about children's lifetime EMF exposure vs. their grandparents
Real solutions to minimize EMFe exposure from AirPods, smartphones, and Wi-Fi routers
Why wireless radiation is being called "the new smoking"

This is your chance to spread this free information and learn about these EMF dangers for our children - information that clearly isn't getting the attention it deserves in mainstream health circles.

Meet Trump’s CDC Director: Susan Monarez

"
A closer look at the CDC director’s history and connections reveal that her government career is closely linked to the intersections of re-branded eugenics, the militarization of healthcare and the expansion of the bio-surveillance state.
MAHA’s “Handpicked” Biosecurity Veteran

As the Trump administration has spent its first few months in The White House constructing the physical and digital infrastructure required for a pre-crime, technocratic police state, little attention has been paid to the ways in which the institutions ostensibly dedicated to “public health” are helping build out this digital control grid. As Unlimited Hangout has been reporting for many years now, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, a prominent subgroup of the surveillance state has emerged at the intersection of Big Tech, Big Pharma and the military industrial complex — one that is laying the groundwork to implement the final frontier of mass surveillance: the bio-surveillance apparatus.

During his first term, Trump implemented the notorious Operation Warp Speed, the Pentagon-ran COVID-19 response plan which issued emergency deregulatory measures and massive funding for the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Now, his second administration has successfully managed to become associated with COVID-era dissidence. This was primarily accomplished through Trump successfully securing the endorsements of figures who were skeptical of the official line on COVID-19, most prominently comedian and podcaster Joe Rogan and longtime environmental litigator and founder of Children’s Health Defense, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Since taking office, however, the second Trump administration has consistently contradicted this unofficial commitment to the spirit of COVID-era dissent and public health institutional overhaul. Just last week, the President touted Operation Warp Speed as one of the “most incredible things ever done in this country.” The week before, he announced an initiative to enable the vast sharing of individuals’ health data across a myriad of “health systems and apps,” in partnership with Pentagon-contracting Big Tech companies. More quietly, however, Trump nominated a seasoned official of the biosecurity apparatus named Susan Monarez to be the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Monarez, whose background is perfectly in line with this technocratic approach to healthcare that the administration has embarked on, was “handpicked” by Kennedy after the previous nominee, Dave Weldon, withdrew his nomination in March. Monarez had been acting director of the CDC for several months and was confirmed at the end of July with little fanfare.

(This very disappointing post on X from RFK Jr. back in March 2025 got lots of criticism, but apparently that has made little difference, as Monarez was appointed CDC Director on 7/29/25):

X posts that erroneously attribute Biden-era tweets supporting masks, lockdowns, vaccine mandates, etc. to my
@CDCgov Director nominee, Susan Monarez, have understandably provoked agita within the MAHA movement. I handpicked Susan for this job because she is a longtime champion of MAHA values, and a caring, compassionate and brilliant microbiologist and a tech wizard who will reorient CDC toward public health and gold-standard science. I’m so grateful to President Trump for making this appointment.

Susan Monarez is a biosecurity veteran who has a long history embedded in what could be described as a gray zone of public governance — one where national security merges with healthcare. These connections and her life’s work suggest that Monarez is a useful tool, knowingly or not, of the biosecurity/surveillance apparatus, a group which has helped expand the sprawling American mass surveillance system under the auspices of wellness, mental health and innovation.

While a lack of a detailed digital footprint makes this exact history difficult to track down precisely, it is likely that her entry into the world of militarized science began at Stanford University when she was carrying out her work as a postdoctoral researcher. The Chair of her department notably boasted deep ties to some of the leading figures in the genetic science boom of the latter half of the 20th century — figures whose research was entangled with the eugenics movement of that era and the increasing securitization of science that occurred in the midst of the Cold War.

From Stanford, Monarez was catapulted into prestigious positions within the domestic parts of DHS, HHS, as well as the White House itself. Notably, the 2014 Ebola outbreak in West Africa emerged during Monarez’s tenure in the Executive Branch, and she played an important role in the government response. That outbreak may have marked one of the first times that the US commissioned the pre-crime, mass surveillance company Palantir with conducting biosurveillance during a public health epidemic. It most certainly established a significant step towards the total transformation of the US public health system into a militarized extension of the surveillance state.

Monarez’s time working in agencies such as the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) and the Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency (HSARPA) made Monarez a perfect candidate for the position she maintained until she was most recently nominated to be the director of the CDC: the Deputy Director of the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H). From its conception, the HHS-housed ARPA-H was meant to serve as a “health” version of the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).

Monarez’s appointment to the CDC, however, indicates further melding of America’s public health institutions with the national security state. While it has been more or less given that most heads of public health agencies in recent years must be supportive of technocratic biotechnology measures, Monarez has presided over significant initiatives and programs that have deepened the militarization of healthcare. She has also been appointed to be the Director of the CDC within the context of the ever-increasing integration of the pre-crime company Palantir, which privatized much of the George Bush-era Total Information Awareness mass surveillance project –– including its “Bio-surveillance” component — into government.

Furthermore, her time as the Deputy Director of ARPA-H may foreshadow the kind of initiatives she will head at the CDC; namely, the blatant digitization of health and acceleration of invasive biotechnology aimed at fracturing the complexity of human biology into observable, consumable and exploitable data points.

As this article will make clear, Monarez’s tenure in government is likely a direct product of the decades-long militarization of academia. Her stints at BARDA, the National Security Council, HSARPA, DHS and most recently ARPA-H are illustrative of the broader technocratic, surveillance-obsessed transformation of public health that has accelerated since the COVID-19 pandemic. That trend appears poised to persist under the second administration of Donald Trump.

To get a closer look at how Monarez may have entered this world, it is worth first investigating the connections that the Chair of her department at Stanford, Mark M. Davis,1 has to some of the industries and ideologues that, over time, have merged to form the biosurveillance state: eugenicists and the oligarchic technocrats who dominate Big Tech. Davis’s connections capture the biosecurity-focused academic environment where the future CDC director began her professional career as well as the spooky world of military-linked science she subsequently entered.

Stanford University — Where Academia and Defense Meet
Nearly five decades before Monarez attended Stanford’s biology and immunology program, the US military establishment was in a frenzy with its officials trying to figure out how they should respond to the Soviet Union’s successful launch of its small satellite named Sputnik into outer space."

@SecKennedy

This is a screenshot from American Academy of Pediatrics’ webpage, thanking the organization’s top corporate donors. These four companies make virtually every vaccine on the CDC recommended childhood vaccine schedule. AAP is angry that CDC has eliminated corporate influence in decisions over vaccine recommendations and returned CDC to gold-standard science and evidence-based medicine laser-focused on children’s health.

AAP today released its own list of corporate-friendly vaccine recommendations. The Trump Administration believes in free speech and AAP has a right to make its case to the American people. But AAP should follow the lead of HHS and disclose conflicts of interest, including its corporate entanglements and those of its journal—Pediatrics—so that Americans may ask whether the AAP’s recommendations reflect public health interest, or are, perhaps, just a pay-to-play scheme to promote commercial ambitions of AAP’s Big Pharma benefactors.

AAP should also be candid with doctors and hospitals that recommendations that diverge from the CDC’s official list are not shielded from liability under the 1986 Vaccine Injury Act.

CDC Director Susan Monarez Ousted In Vaccine Policy Clash With RFK Jr.; Four Top Officials Quit In Leadership Crisis

by Tyler Durden
Thursday, Aug 28, 2025 - 08:05 AM
Department of Health & Human Services announced on X late Wednesday that Susan Monarez, the first Senate-confirmed director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is "no longer director of the CDC."

Monarez appears to have been ousted after a month on the job, which sparked the resignation of four other senior CDC officials.

According to a New York Times report, Monarez "clashed with the secretary over vaccine policy," which ultimately led to her firing.

Hours after HHS' X post, attorneys Mark Zaid and Abbe Lowell wrote on the social media platform that Monarez "has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign."

...

The leadership crisis unfolding at the CDC coincided with the Food and Drug Administration's announcement of new limits on Covid vaccines - and just days after vaccine-pusher Bill Gates met with President Trump at the White House.

Recall that Monarez previously stated, "Vaccines save lives," and championed mRNA shots.

The X account "Died Suddenly" published a profile of Monarez, offering readers a snapshot of her background and political leanings

NEW: Susan Monarez was fired as CDC Director for trying to keep mRNA shots on the recommended childhood vaccine schedule and saying "vaccines save lives"

Monarez has a long history of connections to Bill Gates and his foundation, such as her time at Stanford for postdoctoral research where she worked in a department chaired by Mark Davis, who went on to receive $50M from Gates before the pandemic to create vaccines and found the university's Human Systems Immunology Center.

Monarez also served at the deputy director of ARPA under Bisen and oversaw a partnership with a biotech firm called Ginkgo Bioworks. This firm was underwritten by a Gates-controlled investment firm, Cascade Investment.

Confirmation of Monarez's vaccine-obsessed views came from White House spokesperson Kush Desai, who told Axios News in a statement: "As her attorney's statement makes abundantly clear, Susan Monarez is not aligned with the President's agenda of Making America Healthy Again."

Desai added: "Since Susan Monarez refused to resign despite informing HHS leadership of her intent to do so, the White House has terminated Monarez from her position with the CDC."

Let's remind readers that the globalists have captured the CDC:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GzZRX7IXYAA7Vpc?format=jpg&name=small

At least four other CDC officials resigned on Wednesday in a massive leadership shakeup at the agency: Dr. Debra Houry, the CDC's chief medical officer; Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases; Dr. Daniel Jernigan, the director of the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases; and Dr. Jennifer Layden, director of the Office of Public Health Data, Surveillance and Technology.

The big leadership shakeup at the CDC, days after Gates' visit to the White House, only suggests that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s team is cleaning house.

As Secretary Kennedy explained, the CDC was at the CENTER of the Covid misinformation campaign...and the problems run MUCH deeper.

“Today on CDC’s website right now, they list the 10 top advances—the 10 greatest advances in medical science and one of them is abortion, the other is fluoridation, another is vaccines.”

“We need to look at the priorities at the agency, if there’s really a deeply, deeply embedded—malaise at the agency.”

“We need strong leadership that will go in there and that will be able to execute on President Trump’s broad ambitions.”

White House Fires CDC Director
The former government scientist was President Donald Trump's second nominee for the role.

(Video at the link)

(Despite denials from Monarez's team, it appears to be official that she has been fired. Interesting chain of events... :nerd:)

"Less than a month after she was sworn in, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Susan Monarez has been fired, the White House announced.

White House spokesman Kush Desai, late on Wednesday, said Monarez was not "aligned with the President's agenda of Making America Healthy Again."

Since she had "refused to resign despite informing [Department of Health and Human Services] leadership of her intent to do so, the White House has terminated Monarez from her position with the CDC," Desai said.

The HHS announced earlier on Wednesday that Monarez was no longer the director of CDC, adding that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “has full confidence in his team ... who will continue to be vigilant in protecting Americans against infectious diseases at home and abroad.”
Monarez, who has a background as a federal government scientist, was President Donald Trump’s second nominee for the role. She was confirmed by the Senate in a 51–47 vote on July 29 and sworn in by Kennedy on July 31.

Former Republican congressman and outspoken vaccine safety advocate Dr. David Weldon was the first nominee. Trump withdrew Weldon’s nomination hours before his scheduled confirmation hearing in March.

Before serving as CDC director, Monarez worked in various positions in HHS and the Department of Homeland Security. She was the first CDC director since 1953 to not hold a medical degree. She received a doctorate in microbiology and immunology.

Lawyers representing Monarez posted on X Wednesday evening that “contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired.”
Lawyers Mark Zaid and Abbe Lowell alleged that Monarez had been targeted after refusing to “rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives and fire dedicated health experts.”

“Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign,” the lawyers wrote.

Kennedy previously said he handpicked Monarez for the role, describing her as a “longtime champion of [Make America Healthy Again] values.”
Monarez told senators during her confirmation process that she values vaccines, public health interventions, and rigorous scientific evidence. She mostly avoided questions about whether those positions placed her at odds with Kennedy, who for years has questioned the efficacy and safety of vaccines.

“Vaccines absolutely save lives, and if I’m confirmed as CDC director, I commit to making sure that we continue to prioritize vaccine availability,” Monarez told senators in June.

Monarez faced early adversity after taking office. At the end of her first full week on the job on Aug. 8, a Georgia man killed a police officer and fired more than 180 shots into CDC buildings before killing himself. He blamed the COVID-19 vaccine for making him depressed and suicidal.

Kennedy has made multiple changes to vaccine policies since taking office earlier this year.

In recent months, HHS dismissed all 17 members of the CDC vaccine advisory panel, ended the agency's COVID-19 vaccine recommendations for pregnant women and healthy children, and ordered the removal of mercury from influenza vaccines.
On Aug. 27, before the news about Monarez surfaced, Kennedy announced that federal regulators had revoked emergency authorization for COVID-19 vaccines.

“The emergency use authorizations for Covid vaccines, once used to justify broad mandates on the general public during the Biden administration, are now rescinded,” Kennedy said on X on Aug. 27.
A new document released by the CDC on Aug. 20 reported that a group that advises the agency will review various aspects of COVID-19 vaccines, including concerns about the persistence of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA).
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices work group on COVID-19 vaccines will review data on the shots related to their safety, effectiveness, and immunogenicity, according to the document.

Members of the work group also plan to look at gaps in existing knowledge “relating to bio distribution, pharmacokinetics, and persistence of the spike protein, mRNA, and lipid nanoparticles to inform immunization recommendations,” the document states.

The group plans to issue new recommendations regarding the shots after reviewing the data and consulting with experts at the CDC, the Food and Drug Administration, and outside the government."

RFK JR. TORCHES BIG PHARMA AFTER ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING — Will Conduct Studies for the First Time if America’s Over-Medication and Psychiatric Drugs May Be Driving Violence Epidemic

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is breaking through the media silence on an uncomfortable truth: America may be fueling its own violence epidemic through psychiatric drugs pushed by Big Pharma.

RFK Jr. declared that for the first time, the federal government is conducting real studies to determine whether America’s sky-high dependence on psychiatric medications is tied directly to the surge in random, senseless shootings that have horrified communities coast to coast.

“I certainly consider mass shootings a health crisis. For the first time, we are doing real studies to find out what the ideology behind them is. We’re also looking, for the first time, at psychiatric drugs,” RFK Jr. said during a news conference in Texas on Thursday."

Kennedy pointed out that guns have been part of American life for centuries, but the phenomenon of mass random shootings is entirely modern.

He argues that America’s epidemic of violence may be fueled not by the Second Amendment, but by decades of reckless over-prescription of psychiatric drugs that carry deadly risks.

RFK Jr. stressed that psychiatric medications often carry black box warnings — the FDA’s strongest label — explicitly warning that they can cause “suicidal and homicidal ideation.”

Yet for years, any attempt to discuss the link between prescription drugs and mass shootings has been ridiculed or dismissed by the political class and the mainstream media.

RFK Jr.:
"I certainly consider mass shootings a health crisis. For the first time, we are doing real studies to find out what the ideology behind them is. We’re also looking, for the first time, at psychiatric drugs.

"People have had guns in this country forever. When I was a kid, we had shooting clubs at our school. Kids—my classmates and others—would bring a .22 rifle, leave it in their cars, and park it in the lot. Nobody was shooting.

"There has never been a time in America, or in the history of humanity, when people just walked into a crowd, a church, a movie theater, or a school, and started randomly shooting.

"It’s happening in our country. It’s not happening around the world. Many other countries have comparable levels of guns to what we have. We had comparable levels in the ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s—and people weren’t doing that. Something changed. It dramatically changed human behavior.

"One of the culprits we need to examine is the fact that we are the most over-medicated nation in the world. A lot of those medications are psychiatric drugs that have black-box warnings—warnings of suicidal and homicidal ideation.

"So we are doing those studies right now, for the first time, and we will have an answer."

Robert W Malone, MD
@RWMaloneMD

A detailed secret trade-association memo plotting the removal of US Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has leaked. It reads like a coup attempt against regulatory reform—and they are spending millions to make sure Kennedy is out of office by September.

It seems that the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO), whose membership includes Pfizer, Merck, Novavax, Vaxcyte, and hundreds of biotech firms that profit from regulatory insulation, has a mole.

When the nation’s leading pharmaceutical trade group convenes a closed-door strategy meeting and openly discusses the need to “go to The Hill and lobby that it is time for RFK Jr. to go,” the issue is no longer health policy—it is democratic integrity.
According to the apparent leaked minutes, verified by the name of the creator of the file, on April 3, 2025, BIO held a “Vaccine Policy Steering Committee” (VPSC) meeting whose internal summary, soon to be publicly available thanks to whistleblowers, reveals a campaign of strategic deception, institutional capture, and psychological warfare and exposes a campaign of institutional deception, investor protection, and coordinated sabotage of the MAHA reform platform.

According to the leaked document, titled “BIO Vaccine Policy Steering Committee – April 3, 2025”, BIO has committed $2 million—half of its cash reserve—to counter what it calls the “threat” posed by Kennedy’s rise. But this is no ordinary PR push. It is a multi-pronged campaign designed to deceive the public, silence dissent, and preserve industry dominance through influence operations masquerading as science.
The Plot Exposed

The document opens with a blunt political calculation: Kennedy’s candidacy threatens investor confidence, regulatory predictability, and the long-term viability of the vaccine business. BIO leadership in the apparent leaked document states plainly: “It is time to go to The Hill and lobby that it is time for RFK Jr to go.”

To achieve this, according to the document, BIO intends to deploy surrogates across the political spectrum, co-opt conservative influencers, and bypass direct engagement with the Kennedy campaign altogether. Among the figures named as potential allies in this covert effort: Dr. Mehmet Oz, former Senator Richard Burr (former Senator NC; Advisor DLA Piper Health Policy Steering Committee), Senator Bill Cassidy (in a section of the document focused on strategic influencer engagement and legislative positioning), and the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). These individuals and institutions, the memo suggests, can provide a veneer of bipartisan legitimacy to BIO’s core aim: neutralize Kennedy without ever addressing the substance of his critique.

Follow the Money

The most revealing detail is that $2 million—precisely half of BIO’s entire $4 million reserve—has been allocated to vaccine communications, specifically a D.C.-area pilot campaign called “Why We Vaccinate.” The purpose is not education, but behavioral influence: to combine “inspire and frighten” tactics in order to manipulate public sentiment and legislative behavior.

Internal documents state clearly that the campaign’s goal is to appeal to the “movable middle” using emotionally charged messaging, capitalizing on fear messaging tied to national security, workforce resilience, and economic productivity.

The real reason for the recent CDC resignations is that the ACIP Subcommittee on COVID 19 vaccines got approval to investigate the safety and efficacy of COVID vaccines, and they knew the gig was up, the truth was about to come out, and they would have to account for their actions. All you need to do is read the recently approved “terms of reference” for that subcommittee and it all becomes clear.

RFK Jr. is declaring an end to the FDA's "war on alternative medicine."

He argues that the agency has overstepped its role, shifting from a body that provides scientific guidance to one that restricts medical freedom. Why is there a war on healing substances like stem cells, peptides, vitamins, and minerals?

His solution? The FDA should do the science and inform the public, but stop acting as a gatekeeper that denies Americans and their doctors the right to choose these treatments.

He points to a shocking statistic: pharmaceutical drugs are the third leading cause of death in the U.S. With this as the status quo, he questions why safe, natural alternatives are so heavily restricted.

His powerful conclusion? It's time to trust the intelligence and intuition of the American people to make their own health choices, rather than leaving our well-being solely in the hands of Big Pharma.

Former CDC bigwig Daskalakis is now shilling for Big Pharma, claiming healthy 6-month-olds need a COVID shot. Their "underlying condition"? Being young.

The data he "cites" is a gross misrepresentation. Healthy kids are at near-zero risk from COVID, but real risk from these rushed vaccines.

This is exactly the kind of corrupt, fear-mongering nonsense RFK Jr. has bravely exposed for years. They limit access, strong-arm insurers, and ignore real science to push a dangerous, profitable agenda.

Kennedy is right. They are lying to us. It's time to protect our children from the experts, not with them.

This is Orwellian, Soviet-level propaganda. True bizarro world stuff.

President Trump and RFK are quite litterally fighting demonic forces to return the CDC to real science.

The media is holding up Dr. Demetre Daskalakis at the paradigm of science. This man is a proud satanist who evangelizes a bondage fetish, thinks it’s antiquated to use the word “mother”, and argues every 6-month-old should be forced by the government to receive a COVID injection. I’m not trying to be inflammatory - this is a simple factual recitation of the qualifications for the media’s lead scientific “expert” today.

Dr. Daskalakis is the type of anti-scientific radical who has destroyed the reputation of the CDC and President Trump was overwhelmingly elected to get out.

President Trump and RFK are fighting for science. The media will not be able to find one NIH researcher or academic in America who could say this admin is pressuring them for a specific scientific finding (as previous admins did).

In fact, if the media is honest, they would report that there is a groundswell of academic freedom happening in America. While previous CDC officials pressured staff to not release data that contradicts the preferred narrative, we will not see transparency - even if it is messy. That is returning the CDC to science, not attacking it.

I know there are many employees at the CDC who agree with the agenda to restore science, and this admin will win.

The arrogance and self-importance of these @CDCgov bureaucrats is beyond belief.

The reality is that the US would have been better off with no CDC at all during the pandemic. Their performance was a Chernobyl-level catastrophe. Their incompetence delayed the start of widespread testing at least a month, leading to panicked lockdowns. They forced useless masks over the faces of children for years. They delayed opening of schools for millions of kids. They misinformed the public on safety and efficacy of the vaccines, creating the rationale for the illegal mandates that divided the country. They rubber-stamped covid boosters for healthy kids in the absence of any science or rationale. They cannot credibly argue that the CDC saved a single life.
And their message is still based on fearmongering. It is all that they know and all that they have. Fear of unknown infectious disease "threats."
They have learned nothing at all from the pandemic. Nothing.

Retsef Levi Fires Back At Top CDC Officials Who Quit in Protest — Exposes What Really Happened Behind Closed Doors

Maryanne Demasi: "What really happened? What went on behind closed doors between ACIP and the CDC officials who resigned?"

Levi: "It was their unwillingness to examine the issue of vaccine injuries. To me, recognising vaccine injuries and vaccine-injured people is a foundational component of any successful vaccine program.

"You need to care for the people that trusted your system and were unfortunately injured as a result. We have seen a lot of gaslighting, and leaving the vaccine injured out to dry.

"I want that to change with this Covid immunisation workgroup and more generally as part of the ACIP work.

"We have recruited to the workgroup several highly qualified physicians with great experience who have taken care of 1000s of vaccine-injured people and long Covid patients, and we’re going to use their experience.

"We’ll ask them to help us formulate recommendations about how to improve diagnosis, provide recognition for these patients, and support more research into potential treatments. To me, it’s a moral obligation. And the fact that these leaders argued about that was emotionally shocking, if I’m being honest.”

“So, let’s go back a bit. Once I was tasked with the role of being the Chair of the Covid immunisation workgroup, it was my job, in consultation with my colleagues on ACIP and more broadly, as well as with experts from the FDA and the CDC, to formulate an agenda for what the work group should be doing in the coming years.

"And in doing so, I think we mapped a range of issues, which we spoke about in our last discussion and have been listed in the Terms of Reference that’s on the CDC website.

"I personally think that the agenda we formulated reflects an intention to have a science-driven, evidence-based comprehensive discussion of the risks and benefits of the vaccine products, by leveraging and bringing to bear all the available information and knowledge.

"Previous ACIP discussions on this topic were narrowly focused on very specific questions and on very specific data sources that more often than not provided a very partial analysis and superficial answers, or no answers to critically important questions.

"They did not analyse a large body of scientific literature published in some of the top academic journals that have direct implications for the risks and benefits of these products, and related policy recommendations.

"And I think that the idea behind the new Terms of Reference was to change that. We will not exclude any question that is relevant, nor will we exclude any data source or knowledge source that is available.”

Former CDC Director Calls for 9/11-Style Commission to Investigate America's Covid Pandemic Response

Former CDC Director Robert Redfield recently admitted in an interview with NewsNation's Chris Cuomo that the Covid vaccines had "significant side effects" and agreed a 9/11-style commission should be convened to probe the Covid pandemic response.

"I think it would be useful. And the reason I say that is there's been so much credibility lost in the public science groups, NIH, FDA, CDC, because I think there was a lack of, really, just transparency."

"One of the things I used to tell my colleagues, don't be afraid to say you don't know the answer. And all too often people would make up the answer. And as you know, those of us that tried to suggest there may be significant side effects from vaccines... we kind of got canceled because no one wanted to talk about the potential that there was a problem from the vaccines, because they were afraid that that would cause people not to want to get vaccinated." [...]

"We have to be honest, some people got significant side effects from the vaccine. I have a number of people that are quite ill and they never had Covid, but they are ill from the vaccine and we just have to acknowledge that."

RFK Jr. just went off for 2 minutes straight tearing into the politicization of COVID.

The entire room went silent.

Watch:

“The whole process was politicized. Senator, I mean, we were lied to about everything.”

“We were lied to about natural immunity. We were lied to about, you know, we were told again and again, the vaccines would prevent transmission. They'd prevent infection. It wasn't true. They knew it from the start. It wasn't true because that's what the animal studies in the clinical trials showed. We were told that there was science behind cloth masks.”

“The CDC allowed the teachers union to write the order closing our schools, which hurt working people all over the country, and then pretend it was science-based.”

“President Biden said in August, I would never take that vaccine, the Trump vaccine. And he came in, he mandated it, and then he fired the two top health officials at FDA who said, hey, this thing has not been properly tested. So the whole process was politicized even today.”

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. said he's firing people from the CDC because they won't do their job:

"We are the SICKEST country in the world! That's why we fired people at the CDC! They did NOT do their job! This was THEIR job to keep us healthy, and I need to fire some of those people to make sure it doesn't happen again."

NEW: RFK Jr. FLIPS the script on radical Democrat Sen. Raphael Warnock after he tried to pin the CDC shooting on him.

It took just one devastating question to expose exactly what they’re trying to do to Kennedy.

When Warnock pressed Kennedy about the shooter’s supposed anti-vaccine sentiment in an attempt to tie him to the violence, Kennedy fired back:

“Every member of this panel has criticized President Trump and demonized him.”

“Are you complicit in the assassination attempts on President Trump?”

BREAKING: @SenRonJohnson reveals a high-quality Vax vs. Unvax study will FINALLY be made public Tuesday.

Originally conducted in 2000, the results have been buried for 25 years—until now.

And what did the data suggest?

“…the vaccinated population [is] far more prone to chronic illness than people completely unexposed to vaccines.”

Attorney Aaron Siri will unveil the full findings on Tuesday. This could be HUGE.

BREAKING: Whistleblowers Inside HHS and CDC have just sent me critical information on an ACTIVE sabotage operation taking place within the Federal Health Departments.

Left-wing career bureaucrats are in total panic over RFK Jr. shutting down their Big Pharma grift and are trying to take down the agencies from the inside. And they’re using the CIA to do it.

Here’s how it’s happening:

Career CDC bureaucrats are distributing a CIA manual entitled "Simple Sabotage" to their subordinates. I have multiple whistleblowers with first hand direct evidence of this. The CDC ranks are now acting out this CIA strategy to the letter. The walkouts, corporate media hits, fake protests and Senate hearings. It’s all staged to systematically sabotage Trump’s health agenda.

Here’s what happens next and why we must FIGHT for

Sparks Fly as RFK Jr. Tells Senators CDC Failed Americans During COVID

(Podcast at the link. Hyperlinks in the article not embedded here. )

"In a contentious Senate hearing today, senators called on U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to resign, citing the firing last week of CDC Director Susan Monarez and recent changes to vaccine recommendations. Kennedy defended his record at HHS and accused public health officials in past administrations of failing to address the epidemic of chronic disease.

https://childrenshealthdefense.org/wp-content/uploads/senate-finance-hearing-rfk-jr-wyden-800x417.jpg

During the hearing held by the Senate Finance Committee, which has oversight over the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), many senators used their allotted five minutes to make impassioned speeches and air their grievances, often leaving Kennedy little or no time to respond.

The New York Times described Kennedy, who was visibly annoyed at times, as “remarkably salty and dismissive with senators at times today.”

“You don’t want to talk,” Kennedy told Sen. Elizabeth Smith (D-Minn.). “You want to harangue and have partisan politics. I want to solve these problems.”

Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.) called for Kennedy to resign or be fired by President Donald Trump during the hearing. This morning, Democratic senators on the committee issued a statement calling for his resignation.

Kennedy clashed with senators over the administration’s recent firing of CDC Director Susan Monarez, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) narrowing of the COVID-19 vaccine approvals, the recent cancellation of $500 million in research funding for mRNA vaccines, Kennedy’s restructuring of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices) and the upcoming agenda for that committee, which will address the universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendations.

Several senators also pressed Kennedy on whether Operation Warp Speed was a great accomplishment, and raised concerns about cuts to Medicaid and funding for rural hospitals.

Kennedy shot back at his critics, promising to fix the “malpractice” within the public health agencies, and touting his agency’s many accomplishments since he took the helm.

He blasted the CDC, which he said, “is the most corrupt agency in HHS,” for its history of failing to protect Americans’ health, particularly during the COVID-19 crisis, during which the U.S. “did worse than any country in the world.”

“The people at CDC who oversaw that process, who put masks on our children, who closed our schools, are the people who will be leaving,” he said, adding, “That’s why we need bold, competent and creative new leadership at CDC. People who are able and willing to chart a new course.”

Wyden called Kennedy a liar, Kennedy accused Wyden of doing nothing to prevent chronic disease

After Committee Chair Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) kicked off what he predicted would be a “spirited debate,” ranking member Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) attacked Kennedy for the “costs, chaos and corruption” he allegedly brought to the agency.

That was also the title of a report Wyden co-authored with Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) and submitted to the record, summarizing their take on Kennedy’s tenure at HHS.

Wyden called Kennedy a liar and made what he called an “unprecedented” request that Kennedy be formally sworn in, presumably so the committee could later prove he lied under oath. Crapo refused the request, which isn’t customary in Senate hearings.

Wyden then launched a long attack on Kennedy’s “agenda,” which he said is “fundamentally cruel and defies common sense.”

Kennedy shot back:

“Senator, you’ve sat in that chair for how long? 20, 25 years? While the chronic disease in our children went up to 76%, and you said nothing. You never asked the question, why it’s happening. ‘Why is this happening?’ Today, for the first time in 20 years, we learned that infant mortality has increased in our country. It’s not because I came in here. It’s because of what happened during the Biden administration that we’re going to end.”

Kennedy says Monarez lied in WSJ Op-Ed

Several senators referred to an op-ed written by Monarez and published this morning in The Wall Street Journal. Monarez, who was fired last week by Trump, claimed Kennedy pressured her “to compromise science itself.”

“I was told to preapprove the recommendations of a vaccine advisory panel newly filled with people who have publicly expressed antivaccine rhetoric,” Monarez wrote.

When asked, Kennedy disputed Monarez’s account of her firing. “I told her that she had to resign because I asked her, ‘Are you a trustworthy person?’ And she said ‘no,’” he said.

Wyden quoted Monarez to Kennedy and asked whether he had pressured her to preapprove recommendations. “No, I did not say that to her,” Kennedy responded.

So she’s lying today to the American people in the Wall Street Journal?” Wyden asked.

“Yes, sir,” Kennedy responded.

Kennedy said the opposite was true. Monarez indicated she would refuse to endorse any CDC vaccine panel recommendations even before the committee met to make them, he said. He said he asked her to walk back that stance so she would hear the recommendations and their rationale before making any decision, but Monarez refused.

Taking away vaccines?

Several senators, including Smith and Warren, accused Kennedy of going back on his commitment and “taking away vaccines” from the American people.

Warren cited the FDA’s decision to end emergency use authorization of COVID-19 vaccines and limit approvals of the vaccines to people at high risk. However, HHS also confirmed the vaccines would be available for anyone who decided they wanted them anyway.

Defending the move, Kennedy told Warren, “We’re not going to recommend a product for which there’s no clinical data for that indication, is that what I should be doing?”

“I know you’ve taken $855,000 from pharmaceutical companies, Senator,” he later told Warren.

Operation Warp Speed — worthy of a Nobel Prize

Senators accused Kennedy of holding a contradictory position on Operation Warp Speed, which Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) said deserved a Nobel Prize, but few gave him time to respond to the accusations.

Several senators also lambasted Kennedy for not acknowledging that the COVID-19 vaccines saved millions of lives.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.), a physician who supported Kennedy and spent much of his five minutes questioning why the hepatitis B vaccine is given to all babies, asked Kennedy to respond.

Kennedy said that when the COVID-19 vaccines were first rolled out, they were necessary because the virus was dangerous, but that the vaccines were significantly less necessary now.

“The virus has mutated, it’s much less dangerous, where there’s a lot of natural immunity and herd immunity, and so the calculus is different, and it’s complicated.”

Kennedy added:

“They think I’m being evasive because I won’t make a kind of a statement that’s almost religious in nature, ‘it saved a million lives.’ Well, there is no data to support that. There’s no study. There’s modeling studies. There’s faulty data.”

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), who thanked Kennedy for “putting up with this abuse,” backed Kennedy’s statements on the dangers of the COVID-19 vaccines and said federal health agencies hid the early signals for myo and pericarditis.

At the end of the hearing, Crapo offered Kennedy the floor to make a statement if there were things he wanted to clarify.

“I think I’ll have mercy on everybody here,” Kennedy said. “Let’s adjourn.” "

"Jimmy and Children’s Health Defense’s Mary Holland discuss Donald Trump’s recent shift in tone on Operation Warp Speed, highlighting his ultimatum to Pfizer to release full data on COVID-19 vaccines. They frame this as Trump aligning more closely with RFK Jr., who has long criticized vaccine safety and pandemic policies.

The two accuse Pfizer of fraud, cover-ups, and knowingly downplaying vaccine injuries, while suggesting legal consequences under the PREP Act for willful misconduct. They argue that Trump was misled by Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, and Big Pharma interests, and that a broader “COVID reckoning” is coming as lies and conflicts of interest are exposed."

Big Pharma’s $2 Million Plot To Get Rid Of RFK LEAKED! w/ Mary Holland

Sep 4, 2025

"A leaked memo from Bio, a lobbying group representing major pharmaceutical companies, revealed a $2 million campaign to pressure lawmakers, media, and public health figures to push RFK Jr. out of the Trump administration. The strategy centers on protecting the “continuity” of the vaccine business, particularly preserving the childhood schedule of 72 shots, which critics argue is driven by profit rather than health.

Senators like Bernie Sanders and Chuck Schumer, as well as medical organizations and former CDC directors have joined the effort, citing public health concerns, though detractors point to their heavy funding from big pharma as evidence of corruption. Jimmy Dore and guest Mary Holland of Children’s Health Defense argue that this coordinated attack is intended to protect billions in pharma profits, while public trust in health authorities has collapsed since COVID-19."

Dr. Makary Says FDA Will Release 89 Unpublished Decision Letters for Transparency — Announces Real-Time Disclosure of Rejections After Years of Hiding Critical Drug Data from the Public

FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary declared that the agency will finally pull back the curtain on years of secrecy, releasing 89 previously unpublished drug decision letters and committing to real-time disclosure of future rejections.

For decades, Big Pharma and its allies inside the federal government have operated behind closed doors, burying critical information about why drugs were rejected, leaving the American people completely in the dark.

“If the FDA does not approve a drug application, the American public deserves to know why. Today, we are releasing a large batch of previously unreleased decision letters from 2024 to 2025. Going forward, we will release every new letter in real time,” Makary announced on X.

In an accompanying video, Dr. Makary, who has pledged to clean house at the FDA, stood behind his desk stacked with freshly printed decision letters and addressed the public directly.

Makary: “I’ve got on my desk FDA decision letters that we are going to make public today, and this is part of a broader transparency initiative we announced on day one. We’re doing this for a couple of reasons.

Number one: We want drug developers and inventors to understand exactly how the FDA thinks, and the division they’re applying through specifically, so they can better navigate the process. If somebody has a cure for a disease, they should be able to get through the process as efficiently as possible—with as much information as possible—on how the FDA works.

Number two: We’re doing it because, if the FDA does not approve a drug, the public deserves to know why. Sometimes people come up to me and say they heard a drug was not approved by the FDA for no good reason. Then, when I look into it, it turns out there were a lot of good reasons, including safety and manufacturing violations. So people deserve to have all the information.

We hope that this broader initiative is going to help deliver on our bigger goal of more cures and meaningful treatments for the American people.”

BREAKING: RFK Jr. and President Trump just STRUCK a blow right into the heart of BIG PHARMA.

He called it a “historic change” in the way pharmaceutical ads are done on television.

Moments ago, Secretary Kennedy told Bret Baier he had just left an Oval Office meeting where President Trump signed an executive order MANDATING that TV drug ads include adverse side effects.

This overturns the 1997 rules that let Big Pharma run ads without disclosing the risks in the commercial...while raking in billions.

This is another MASSIVE MAHA win!

MJTruthUltra
@MJTruthUltra
HOLEE SHIZZLES‼️

BIG PHARMA now has to list ALL side effects on Pharma Ads — RFK Jr says this will Now FORCE Pharma companies to decide if they want to run a 4 minute ads or not.

This is Mission accomplished!

This is the NEXT BEST thing next to banning them completely from Television, which RFK Jr has said he’s working to do, but will require the Supreme Court

In 1976, there was a Supreme Court case that effectively protected pharmaceutical advertisements on TV as free speech is ‘Virginia State Board of Pharmacy v. Virginia Citizens Consumer Council’ 1976).

This case established a precedent for protecting pharmaceutical ads as a form of commercial speech, provided they are truthful and not misleading.

Until there is a new established ruling, what RFK Jr just did is monumental!

How Vaccine Adverse Side Effects Were Buried--Study Comparing Vaccinated vs Unvaccinated Children

At a Senate Homeland Security vaccine hearing on Tuesday, September 9, 2025 Attorney Aaron Siri of ICAN (Informed Consent Action Network) testified how a study of the adverse side effects of vaccines was covered up.

The overall findings of the study showed that “after 10 years, 17% of unvaccinated children had a chronic health issue, while 57% of vaccinated children had at least one.” That’s a more than threefold increase in the risk of chronic health conditions among the vaccinated.

Attorney Aaron Siri cited a study conducted by Dr. Marcus Zervos in 2016 that compared the health of the vaccinated vs the unvaccinated. Dr. Zervos was head of infectious disease at Henry Ford Health in Detroit. He’s as pro-vaccine as they come. Dr. Zervos agreed to run the study, determined to prove Bigtree and other vaccine skeptics wrong. At the time, he vowed, “Whatever the results, they get published.”

Attorney Siri: “The only real problem with this study,” Siri stated, “is that its findings did not fit the belief and policy that vaccines are safe. Had it found vaccinated children were healthier, it no doubt would have been published immediately. But because it found the opposite, it was shoved in a drawer.”

Huge credit goes to Del Bigtree, The Highwire, Attorney Aaron Siri, and others for 1) convincing Dr. Zervos to conduct this study and 2) bringing it to light.

The full documentary, titled An Inconvenient Study, is slated for release on October 3.

The study by Dr. Marcus Zervos found:

Vaccinated children had 5.96 times the rate of autoimmune disease.

Vaccinated children had 5.53 times the rate of neuro-developmental disorders.

Vaccinated children were over four times more likely to have an asthma diagnosis than the unvaccinated.

They also had a sixfold increase in acute and chronic ear infections.

Speech disorders were 4.47 times higher in the vaccinated group compared to the unvaccinated.

Attorney Siri: "There was also other conditions for which there were numerous cases in the vaccinated group but zero in the unvaccinated group, hence the rate could not be calculated, including brain disfunction, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities and tics."

RFK Jr. is reportedly about to drop a hammer on Autism connecting Tylenol (acetaminophen) — pushed on newborns for decades — is now linked to over half of autism cases. Get ready for Bobby Kennedy to drop that hammer. The study shows that mothers who took Tylenol while pregnant saw a 300% increase in autism.

Also, Trump posts video indicating vaccines contain poison

Article with video: President Trump Drops a Political Bombshell on Truth Social

On September 8, 2025, President Donald J. Trump posted a video on Truth Social amplifying claims that vaccines contain thimerosal (a mercury-based preservative) and suggesting links to autism.

In a striking move, the President shared a video featuring an NIH geneticist and biochemist who outlined claims that vaccines contain toxic substances such as mercury and may be linked to autism.

The post became even more explosive when Trump added his own commentary, referring to vaccines as “poison.” His blunt phrasing immediately reverberated across social media and news platforms, igniting debate on one of the most controversial issues of our time.

You probably believe bottled water is safer than tap — but what if that’s the biggest myth in modern health? Behind the “pure,” “alkaline,” and “detox” labels, many bottled waters hide PFAS chemicals, microplastics, and heavy metals that slowly damage your liver, kidneys, and immune system — especially after 60. In this video, we expose 5 bottled water brands you should never drink and reveal 2 that are truly clean and safe. You’ll also learn how to read labels, pick the right pH, and store water properly to avoid hidden toxins. Don’t let a $1.50 bottle become a lifelong health cost — watch before your next sip.

Trump Administration STUNNING BETRAYAL Of The MAHA Movement!
wSxqZfhFfIQ

Explosive allegations have emerged that top Trump-era cabinet figures, including RFK Jr., Kash Patel and Pete Hegseth, are merely PR decoys while powerful insiders like Jim O’Neill and Peter Thiel–aligned operatives secretly run all the important federal agencies.

As guest host James Li and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger dig into the EPA’s approval of new pesticides containing PFAS, aka “forever chemicals,” they frame it as yet another bipartisan betrayal proving that neither political party protects the public from toxic industry interests.

They also connect these decisions to deeper networks of influence across intelligence agencies, megadonors, religious movements, and political operatives who maintain control behind the scenes. Ultimately, the segment urges viewers to resist manufactured narratives, expose corruption loudly, and stop trusting figureheads who serve as nothing more than managed characters in a political stage play.

Executive Order 14155, titled "Withdrawing the United States from the World Health Organization", is an executive order signed by United States president Donald Trump on January 20, 2025, during the first day of his second presidential term.

A legacy of global health leadership

Founded in 1948 with significant support from the United States, the W.H.O. has played a critical role in addressing global health challenges. From providing aid in conflict zones to tracking epidemics like Ebola and Zika, the agency’s work has saved countless lives. The United States has traditionally been a major contributor to the W.H.O., funding a significant portion of its $6.8 billion annual budget.

Despite the withdrawal, U.S. disengagement from the W.H.O. will not be immediate. Under a joint resolution adopted by Congress at the organization’s founding, the United States must give a year’s notice and fulfil its financial obligations for the current fiscal year before the withdrawal is finalized.

That 1 year is UP. From January 20th 2026 the U.S. it OUT !

Four years ago, this news would have had over 90% of the active posting members of this forum cheering at the top of their voices.

The Great MAHA Glyphosate Betrayal
Jeremy R. Hammond <newsletter@jeremyrhammond.com>
3/12/26

"Last month, Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to effectively subsidize domestic production of glyphosate, a key ingredient in toxic herbicides like Bayer's Roundup.

Eliminating such toxins from our food supply is a major goal of the health freedom movement. It's also a goal of members of the "MAHA" movement who voted for Trump to get RFK, Jr. into HHS.

Yet Kennedy defended the EO, propagating the pretext that it is unfortunately necessary on grounds of "national security".

Other MAHA voices also joined in defending the EO.

But it has absolutely nothing to do with protecting Americans from foreign adversaries.

It has everything to do with protecting Bayer and obfuscating the harm to farmers from Trump's own economic policies.

What is happening? Why would the MAHA leadership endorse an EO so transparently aimed at ensuring the continued poisoning of our food while shielding glyphosate producers from liability?

I analyze the arguments used within MAHA to justify Trump's EO, revealing how each one is fundemantally mistaken, and I explain the hard truth about why the MAHA leadership chose to deceive the public about its purpose.

In this special report, I deliver a message that I know that many of my readers—fellow advocates of health freedom—do not want to hear.

But it's something I feel needs to be said.

It's something I tried to warn people about before Trump was elected.

But I accompany the upsetting news with a hopeful message: that we have the power to effect meaningful change, from the bottom up.

Explaining the MAHA™ Betrayal

Trump’s Executive Order
On February 18, President Donald Trump issued an Executive Order (EO) aimed at effectively subsidizing the domestic production of glyphosate on grounds of “national security”.

Glyphosate is a chemical used in herbicides, including Bayer’s popular “Roundup” product, previously manufactured by Monsanto, which Bayer bought and absorbed in 2018.

The EO referenced Bayer as the only domestic producer of glyphosate, which has resulted in a dependency on imports from what the Trump administration described as “hostile foreign actors”.

That was a clear reference to China, which is the source of almost all imported glyphosate.

Bayer has been facing lawsuits alleging that Roundup causes cancer, and glyphosate is also known to disrupt the gut microbiome, which can lead to a multitude of health problems.

Eliminating glyphosate and other toxic chemicals from the food supply has been a key aim of the “Make America Healthy Again” or “MAHA” movement, whose members voted for Trump to get Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. into the position of Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Yet Kennedy himself defended the EO, and others in the MAHA leadership have similarly tried to reassure Trump’s critics that it’s just an unfortunate reality that farmers are dependent on glyphosate; and while a transition to regenerative and organic agriculture is necessary, it is a matter of “national security” that we take action in the meantime. Kennedy endorsed the EO as necessary to protect the food supply from “adversarial nations” and “hostile actors”.

So, who is right? Are the critics of the EO misguided, or has the MAHA leadership made a political compromise that elevates loyalty to Trump over the objectives of the health freedom movement?

The answer, I posit, is the latter. Let’s examine the opposing arguments.

The Arguments in Defense of Trump’s Executive Order
One of the leaders of the MAHA movement is Del Bigtree, host of The Highwire and founder of the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), which has done phenomenal work advocating the right of individuals to make their own health choices, including the right to informed consent for vaccinations.

Bigtree was also the communications director for Kennedy’s presidential campaign, before Kennedy dropped out of the race to form an alliance with Trump.

As discussed in more detail below, after joining Trump’s campaign, Kennedy registered a trademark application for “MAHA” that he then transferred to Bigtree. The MAHA trademark was transferred again last summer, with current ownership remaining unclear.

In an article by Tracy Beanz and Michelle Edwards described as an “editorial” by the show’s X account, The Highwire defended Trump’s EO.

Directing readers to the article, the Highwire’s X post firmly rejected the idea that “Trump betrayed MAHA”, suggesting that the EO was instead a necessary step on the path to eventually replacing glyphosate through innovation and reformation of the agricultural system.

“There’s a bigger fight worth having than this last week’s outrage news cycle”, the post stated.

The Highwire article characterized the EO’s critics as having acted irrationally based on a misunderstanding of its contents. By the Highwire’s account, “sheer panic ensued” when people “apparently briefly skimmed” the order and saw “the words ‘glyphosate’ and ‘immunity.’”

People thus misinterpreted the EO as “a permanent stamp of approval to chemicals in our food”; they “misread” it as providing “a magic immunity shield against product liability or cancer claims related to glyphosate.”

The Highwire averred that the EO was instead “a national-security procurement memo” that invoked authority from the Defense Production Act of 1950 to direct resources toward domestic mining of elemental phosphorus, which is used to make glyphosate. Other uses of phosphorus include incendiary weapons, semiconductors, and lithium-ion batteries.

The EO did not give “blanket immunity”, as critics claimed, but instead provided “a compliance shield that prevents a company from being punished simply for prioritizing a federal order over ordinary contracts.” The immunity clause “is tied to compliance with the order, not a blanket pardon for toxic tort claims.”

The “backlash” was also misguided, the Highwire argued, because the EO did not “permanently stamp SAFE on glyphosate”; it was merely “an access and supply decision, not a health verdict.”

The article concluded that, yes, we certainly need to get glyphosate out of our food, but we shouldn’t “turn anti-farmer or anti-Trump” because of an Executive Order that is necessary for national security.
The editorial cited Secretary Kennedy’s own defense of the EO, paraphrasing his argument that “our nation is dependent on something it suspects is making us sick, and the question is how to transition off of that toxic path without putting farmers out of business.”

The EO strikes an appropriate balance, The Highwire argued, between “the MAHA instinct (stop poisoning people) and the national-interest instinct (don’t collapse domestic agriculture)”.

The article concluded that, yes, we certainly need to get glyphosate out of our food, but we shouldn’t “turn anti-farmer or anti-Trump” because of an Executive Order that is necessary for national security.

In sum, instead of criticizing the EO, The Highwire defended it, expressing a clear position of loyalty to Trump and characterizing critics as not merely “anti-Trump” but also “anti-farmer”.

Similarly, The MAHA™ Report, a Substack publication of MAHA Action, Inc., issued a call for “unity” in support of the EO.

“We take President Trump at his word”, the organization said in an official statement on February 20, “that this executive order is about national security and reducing dependence on China. We support that objective.”

The statement similarly characterized the EO as striking an appropriate balance between “supply chain security” and “health security”.

The central message from those defending the EO is that we are supposed to be good team players and get on board with MAHA™ and whatever its leadership decides is best, which also means being a Trump loyalist.

If Trump says his EO is for “national security”, then we ought to believe him, and we ought not become both “anti-Trump” and “anti-farmer” by opposing it.

However, these defenses offered by the MAHA leadership to excuse Trump’s EO are based on three fundamental errors. Read More: https://www.jeremyrhammond.com/memberships/"

*****************
(I hope someone who has a paid membership to Jeremy's articles will clue us in to what those "three fundamental errors" might be.
I am also hoping RFK Jr. will be shedding more light on this situation. I don't think he is easily bullied, and so it's puzzling that he has been going along with Trump's reasoning.
Certainly it would be wise to stop buying Glysophate that comes from China for any number of reasons, but that's just the tip of the iceberg.
We don't just "suspect" that Glysophate is making us sick, we KNOW that it is, and not just us, but the bees and other wildlife as well.
It's being sprayed so heavily, drifting in the air across the lands and polluting the waterways, so there is fundamentally no way to escape it. )
